| In this paper we investigate which
characteristics reliable multicast services should have in order
to be appropriate for use by distributed interactive media
applications such as shared whiteboards, networked computer
games, or distributed virtual environments. We take a close look
at the communication requirements of these applications and at
existing approaches to realize reliable multicast. Based on this
information we deduce which reliable multicast transport
protocols are appropriate for the different aspects of
distributed interactive media. Furthermore we discuss how the
application programming interface of a reliable multicast service
should be designed in order to support the development of
applications for distributed interactive media. |
