Stanislav is known for his designed congestion control, uTP/LEDBAT[4] that improves peer-to-peer network coverage and speed to replace TCP/IP protocol.[5] According to an article published in fastcolabs.com, Shalunov's congestion protocol carries between 13% and 20% of all traffic moving across the Internet.[6][7] He started working on building peer-to-peer file-sharing service at Internet2 consortium that he finished while working for BitTorrent. The software was called as Low Extra Delay Background Transport or LEDBT.[8][9] This control mechanism was later used by Apple and BitTorrent. He earned his Mathematics with minor in Computer Science from University of Wisconsin-Madison and Masters of Mathematics and Computer Science from Moscow State University.
