Asynchronous Layered Coding Protocol Instantiation
RFC 5775, “Asynchronous Layered Coding Protocol Instantiation”, is a Proposed Standard document published in April 2010 by M. Luby, M. Watson, L. Vicisano. It obsoletes RFC 3450. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This document describes the Asynchronous Layered Coding (ALC) protocol, a massively scalable reliable content delivery protocol. Asynchronous Layered Coding combines the Layered Coding Transport (LCT) building block, a multiple rate congestion control building block and the Forward Error Correction (FEC) building block to provide congestion controlled reliable asynchronous delivery of content to an unlimited number of concurrent receivers from a single sender. This document obsoletes RFC 3450. [STANDARDS-TRACK]
What “Proposed Standard” means
An entry-level standards-track specification: stable, peer-reviewed and a solid basis for implementation, though it may still evolve before becoming an Internet Standard.
