An excess of traffic etc
A condition in which a packet sent through a network experiences excessive delays because the network is overloaded with packets Protocol software has to detect this condition and take action to prevent the network from collapsing because of excessive overhead Congestion usually happens at specific points along a network path, and routing protocols can reroute data to use less congested paths and control congestion(to a degree)
Congestion occurs when the offered load exceeds the capacity of a data communication path
Restriction of flow on a line to meet the technical requirements of the network, taking into account the performance and behaviour of the equipment
{i} overcrowding; abnormal accumulation (of blood, fluid, etc.)

As defined by Caltrans, reduced speeds of less than 35 miles per hour for longer than 15 minutes
excessive crowding; "traffic congestion" excessive accumulation of blood or other fluid in a body part
The relation between traffic flow and roadway capacity As the traffic flow approaches capacity, the route becomes more congested

Traffic conditions on roads, highways, or freeways which do not permit movement at optimal legal speeds
Overfullness of the capillary and other blood vessels, etc., in any locality or organ (often producing other morbid symptoms); local hyper/mia, active or passive; as, arterial congestion; venous congestion
The realization of the potential of over subscription A congested link is one on which multiple devices actually are contending for bandwidth
This occurs when there are too many callers using the same BTS at once, and the call is rejected
An excessive accumulation of blood or other fluid in a body part or blood vessel In congestive fever the internal organs become gorged with blood
Traffic in excess of network capacity
What occurs when the load exceeds the capacity of a data communication path You may be experiencing congestion when any of the following happens: you get a busy signal when you dial into a modem pool, the response from the server or host you are trying to reach is slow, or you get an error message telling you that no ports are available for the service or host you want to use
A state occurring in a part of a network when the message traffic is so heavy that it slows down network response time
Overfullness of the capillary and other blood vessels, etc
Congestion is the term used to describe the situation that occurs when telecommunications traffic cannot be transferred to its destination because of a shortage of circuits en route The network or a particular switching center or traffic route is then said to be congested
excessive crowding; "traffic congestion"
Condition in which a link has too many packets waiting to be sent This condition could be caused by the failure of an element in the network Possible levels are None, Low, High, and Very High, which correspond roughly to equivalent ANSI and ITU congestion levels
congestion charge
Congestion charges refer to money motorists must pay in order to drive in some city centres. Congestion charges are intended to reduce traffic within those areas. @ congestion charging con·ges·tion charg·ing the decision on whether to introduce congestion charging on urban roads
congestion charging

nasal congestion
The blockage of the nasal passages usually due to membranes lining the nose becoming swollen from inflamed blood vessels
nasal congestion
(Tıp, İlaç) Nasal congestion is the blockage of the nasal passages usually due to membranes lining the nose becoming swollen from inflamed blood vessels. It is also known as nasal blockage, nasal obstruction, blocked nose, runny nose, and stuffy nose
Backward Explicit Congestion Notification
bit sent by a frame relay network to data terminal equipment to indicate that the sending device should slow packet transmissions or begin other congestion avoidance procedures (Telecommunications)
lung congestion
Distention of blood vessels in the lungs and filling of the pulmonary alveoli with blood. It results from infection, hypertension, or inadequate heart function (e.g., left-sided heart failure). Congestion seriously impairs gas exchange, leading to breathing difficulty, bloody discharge in sputum, and bluish skin tint
