File Delivery over Unidirectional Transport implementation

MAD-FLUTE is an implementation of FLUTE - File Delivery over Unidirectional Transport (IETF draft). FLUTE is a protocol for the unidirectional delivery of files over the Internet, which is particularly suited to multicast networks. FLUTE builds on Asyncronous Layered Coding (ALC), the base protocol designed for massively scalable multicast distribution (RFC 3450). ALC is a protocol instantiation of Layered Coding Transport building block (LCT) (RFC 3451). MAD-ALC is an implementation of the ALC/LCT protocols. The MAD/TUT project is going on at Tampere University of Technology (TUT).
