Consider a TCP connection over a single link of speed 100 packets/sec. Suppose the round trip time of this connection is 0.1 sec and this TCP connection is always in the congestion avoidance phase. At any time, if the window size is not integer, it will be rounded up to the nearest integer. (i) (10 points) Suppose the link does not buffer any packets. What is the average window size and the average throughput of this TCP connection?

(ii) (10 points) Now suppose we add a buffer of size 1 to this link. How does the answer to part (i) change?
