            Abstract : 
The author presents an analysis of three object replication strategies based on reliable multicast protocols. A multiclass queuing model is used for obtaining performance characteristics of each strategy. The strategies are compared for a wide set of parameters showing the best strategy suitable for a given situation: the parallel update strategy is interesting for low load conditions and for the low read/write ratio
