Design of a multicast file transfer tool on top of ALC
Vincent Roca, Benoit Mordelet · 2003
This work describes several techniques that we used to design a multicast file transfer tool on top of the asynchronous layered coding protocol proposed by the RMT IETF WG. Their goal is to improve the overall performance of that tool. More specifically we analyze several object and symbol ordering schemes that improve transmission efficiency and we see how the application level framing paradigm can help to reduce memory requirements and enable processing to be hidden behind communications.
