Abstract :
The group protocol supports applications with enough quality of service (QoS,) in change of QoS supported by the underlying network and required by applications. A flexible group service is supported for applications by cooperation of multiple autonomous agents. Each agent dynamically and autonomously takes a class of each protocol function like retransmission which is consistent with the other agents.
