Abstract :
Forward error correction improves the performance of multicast transmissions to recover from lost packets. Common reliable multicast protocols divide the download into blocks for coding purposes; however, with present coding techniques and faster processors, it is possible to operate over complete download files. The considerable transmission performance gains of this technique are shown.
