Gary:

    Instead of trying to explain all the concepts, here's the list
of papers.  They are all quite readable, and it is generally better
to get things from the source...

    Nagle: There are two algorithms, and thus, two papers. RFC 970
    (which also appeared in IEEE. Trans. Communications, Vol 35, No. 4)
    and RFC 896.

    Karn: P. Karn and C. Partridge, Improving Round-Trip Time Estimates
    in Reliable Transport Protocols.  Proc. ACM SIGCOMM '87, pp. 2-7.

    Jacobson: V. Jacobson, Congestion Avoidance and Control, Proc.
    ACM SIGCOMM '88, pp. 314-329
