Of only academic interest: I believe that, circa 1980 +/- 1-2 years, an 
advisee of either Dave Clark or Jerry Saltzer, wrote an undergraduate 
thesis about the use of Source Quench for congestion control. I believe 
it included some experiments (maybe all artificial, or only through 
simulation).
I don't think it had much impact on the rest of the world.
