Title: Reliable Multicast Transport Building Block: Tree Auto-Configuration
State: Pending
Authors: Seok Koh
Group: Individual Submissions (none)
Date: 2004-01-07
The Reliable Multicast Transport (RMT) Working Group has been chartered to
standardize reliable multicast transport services and protocol
instantiations, which include the tree-based ACK (TRACK) protocol. This
document is concerned with defining the building block for
auto-configuration of the logical ACK-tree. According to the charter, a
building block is 'a coarse-grained modular component that is common to
multiple protocols along with abstract APIs that define a building block's
access methods and their arguments.' The TRACK BB mechanisms [5] will
operate on the logical ACK-tree that is configured by this TREE BB in the
TRACK PI sessions. This document is made based on the guidelines for the
RMT BB [2] and the recommendations for TREE BB [4].
