Abstract :
In this paper we define the functions of a unidirectional IP-based file delivery protocol based on research on the past work in the area. We review several pieces of historic work on file delivery protocols and therefore provide a background to the current state of the art, FLUTE, which is being developed towards standard in Internet engineering task force. We also provide a comparison of different approaches and introduce items for future work in this area.
