Abstract

This paper describes a scalable and reliable multicast communication service for developing distributed applications in Java. The service is based on MPDT, a dual-token logical ring-based multicast protocol proposed by us. MPDT ensures total ordering of multicast message deliver and is resilient to network faults and node crashes. We describe the implementation of MPDT in Java and report the results of the performance evaluation. We also discuss extension of MPDT to support multiple tokens.
