High-Performance, Reliable Multicasting: Foundations for Future Internet Groupware Applications*
نویسندگان
چکیده
Network protocols that provide efficient, reliable, and totally-ordered message delivery to large numbers of users will be needed to support many future Internet applications. The Reliable Multicast Protocol (aMP) is implemented on top ofIP multicast [14] to facilitate reliable transfer of data for replicated databases and groupware applications that will emerge on the Internet over the next decade. This paper explores some of the basic questions and applications of reliable multicasting in the context of the development and analysis of RMP.

Architecture and design of an internet-enabled integrated workflow and groupware system
In the last decade, bureaucratic organizational hierarchies increasingly have been replaced with flatter organizational forms, bringing together people from different disciplines to form virtual project teams within and between organizations. Distributed virtual teams often are self-configuring networks of mobile and “fixed” people, devices, and applications. The contribution of this paper is t...
متن کاملPerformance evaluations of SRMTP for reliable multicasting over satellite networks
A wide variety of network applications require the use of reliable multicast protocols to disseminate data from one source to a potentially large number of receivers simultaneously. Broadband satellite is an ideal transmission medium to support such applications. Although several reliable multicast protocols have been proposed for the Internet, they are not optimized for satellite networks, and...
