“…Most authors acknowledge the fact that different multicast applications have different reliability requirements (Floyd, Jacobson, Liu, McCanne and Zhang 1997;Pullen 1999;Singhal et al 1999;Li et al 2002;Auerbach et al 2003). As a result, several reliable multicast approaches have been proposed.…”

“…Kaser et al (2000) also examined the scalability of reliable multicast transport but using active services. Pullen (1999) looked at the issue of reliable multicast in DIAs and detailed the workings of the Selectively Reliable Transport Protocol. This protocol employs three service modes according to the requirements of the DIA -best-effort multicast, reliable multicast and reliable datagram.…”

-This paper is the second part of a two part paper that documents a detailed survey of the research carried out on consistency and latency in distributed interactive applications (DIAs) in recent decades. Part I reviewed the terminology associated with DIAs and offered definitions for consistency and latency. A classification for consistency maintenance mechanisms was given and various mechanisms belonging to the first of three categories, time management, were described. Here, in the second part of the paper, the remaining two categories of mechanisms are examined -information management (such as predictive contract techniques, relevance filtering, packet bundling) and system architecture (such as QoS and protocols).

“…Much research has been conducted to overcome the networking limitations and provide a better distributed system. Some of these studies provide receiver-initiated [PK99] and selectively reliable transport protocols [Pul99] that can be used to deliver important messages with a high degree of reliability, while others use sender-initiated approaches, transmitting key updates with guaranteed reliability [SG01]. The IEEE DIS standard [IEE98] has also been successfully used in a controlled environment with vast resources, mostly for military simulations.…”

Massively Multiplayer Online Games (MMOG), now supporting millions of simultaneous participants on a regular basis, have become a significant contributor in human-to-human communications. While originally designed for games, they have now moved into serious realms of socialization, business, commerce, scientific experimentation, and others. As more and more people participate in these massive environments, the underlying infrastructure is starting to exhibit shortcomings that limit the progress, practicality, and applicability of MMOGs. This thesis explores various architectural challenges inherent in MMOGs and offers effective solutions in the context of a hybrid model. The key objective of this hybrid model, realized in a Massively Multiuser VIrtual Simulation Architecture (MM-VISA), is to form a stable and scalable collaboration platform that economically combines the resources of both servers and player peers, incorporating the advantages of a centralized architecture and a scalable Peer-to-Peer distributed system, which in turn leads to improved support for the participating masses.

“…A number of protocols have been proposed for reliable multicast transport, for example RMTP [3]. Our observation is that each reliable multicast protocol is applicable in only a restricted application domain [4]. SRMP's application domain is defined by the ability to use selective reliability to support reduction of transmitted state information in DVS using known temporal characteristics of object attributes.…”
