Abstract :
Reliable many-to-many multicasting of messages is an integral part of group communication systems. Such systems typically employ a reliable multicast protocol that operates below the causal or total ordering layer of the protocol stack. In this paper, we present ARMP, a reliable many-to-many multicast protocol for group communication over wide-area ATM networks. We describe how the ATM environment affects the design of ARMP, which differs significantly from the design of reliable multicast protocols intended for other environments
