Abstract:
Efficient error control techniques for TCP-based multicast networks are described. In one embodiment, for example, an apparatus may comprise at least one memory and logic for routing data at a node of a TCP multicast tree, at least a portion of the logic comprised in hardware coupled to the at least one memory, the logic to identify a data segment that has been retransmitted to the node from an adjacent upstream node, determine whether each of a plurality of adjacent downstream nodes have acknowledged at least one previous transmission of the data segment, and in response to a determination that one or more of the adjacent downstream nodes have not acknowledged at least one previous transmission of the data segment, forward the data segment to each of the one or more adjacent downstream nodes. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Claim (Index 21):
The method of  claim 16 , the adjacent upstream node comprising a source server of the multicast tree.
