Abstract

Guaranteed, Reliable, Secure Broadcast (GRSB) - is a protocol that provides reliable and secure broadcast/multicast communications. Four logical nodes are enforced in the network - a Central Retransmitter, a Security Controller, a Designated Acknowledger, a (many when need) Playback Recorder(s). Through the coordinated service of the four nodes, every user node can be guaranteed to receive all broadcast messages in a secure manner and in the correct temporal order. This paper focuses on the implication of GRSB to office information systems. How GRSB coherently supports several progressive functional requirements, from small number of user nodes to complex, but integrated functions, is elaborated.
