Reliable broadcast in networks with nonprogrammable servers

Abstract
The problem of implementing reliable broadcast in ARPA-like computer networks is studied. The environment is characterized by the absence of any multicast facility on the communication by the absence of any multicast facility on the communications subnetwork level. Thus, broadcast has to be implemented directly on hosts. A reliable broadcast protocol is presented and evaluated with respect to several important performance criteria.
