Abstract :
We propose a new protocol stack for multimedia data communications. It consists of the ST-II protocol at the network layer and a modified version of the XTP protocol called XTP-Lite at the transport layer. The specific features of the protocol stack are presented and the implementation in a SUN environment is introduced. Related performance measurements are also given to support the conclusions
