- When data is transferred from A to B, some TCP ACK messages travel in the
opposite direction. To reflect the impact of this `cross-traffic`, SimGrid
simulates a flow from B to A that represents an additional bandwidth
- consumption of `0.05`. The route from B to A is implicity declared in the
- platfrom file and uses the same link `link1` as if the two hosts were
+ consumption of `0.05`. The route from B to A is implicitly declared in the
+ platform file and uses the same link `link1` as if the two hosts were
connected through a communication bus. The bandwidth share allocated to the
flow from A to B is then the available bandwidth of `link1` (i.e., 97% of
the nominal bandwidth of 1Mb/s) divided by 1.05 (i.e., the total consumption).
