Abstract

We present a formal model for multicast network protocols working on arbitrary tree structures. We give sufficient conditions under which correctness of the protocol for all structures reduces to correctness for the structures with at most one layer of internal nodes. If additional conditions hold, we can reduce further to correctness for one single structure. All these results can be applied to (an abstract version of) the Pragmatic General Multicast protocol.
