The Multicast Dissemination Protocol (MDP) is a protocol framework and software toolkit for reliable multicasting data objects, including files and application memory blocks. A primary design goal is to provide a reliable multicast protocol approach that is suitable for reliable dissemination of data over both wireless and wired networks. It provides a well-defined toolkit and library for handling the protocol and congestion control extensions.  [edit]  Less
