The Reliable Multicast Design Space for Bulk Data Transfer
Mark James Handley, Sally Floyd, Brian Whetten, Roger G. Kermode, Lorenzo Vicisano, Mike Luby · 2000
The design space for reliable multicast is rich, with many possible solutions having been devised.However, application requirements serve to constrain this design space to a relatively small solution space.This document provides an overview of the design space and the ways in which application constraints affect possible solutions.
