โฆ Synopsis
A reliable multicast protocol (RMP) based on a logical token ring approach can achieve agreement of a group of operational processes in distributed systems. The structure of RMP is modulated into component protocols that achieve total ordering, atomicity of multicast messages; dynamic group configuration and fault-tolerance cooperatively. RMP uses a virtual token to order multicast messages in a logical process ring. It is highly efficient over networks and its algorithm design and implementation are presented. The use of a state machine approach simplifies this complex system implementation. Experience and lessons drawn from RMP and general techniques applied to group communication protocol are also described. ศฐ1997 by John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

By understanding how real users have employed reliable multicast in real distributed systems, we can develop insight concerning the degree to which this technology has matched expectations. This paper reviews a number of applications with that goal in mind. Our findings point to trade-offs between t
## Abstract In this paper we propose a secure and efficient multicast protocol where the key management is distributed to local groups. The proposed protocol takes advantage of MBone topology to maintain scalability and efficiency at the same time. Copyright ยฉ 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
Many important applications in wireless mesh networks require reliable multicast communication, i.e., with 100% packet delivery ratio (PDR). Previously, numerous multicast protocols based on automatic repeat request (ARQ) have been proposed to improve the packet delivery ratio. However, these ARQ-ba
