Title : Licklider Transmission Protocol

This document describes the Licklider Transmission Protocol (LTP)
designed to provide retransmission-based reliability over links
characterized by extremely long message round-trip times (RTTs).
These long round-trip times may result from the use of half-duplex
channels or from data propagation delays that are so lengthy as to
simulate half-duplex transmission. Such environments are not well
served by TCP, which depends on relatively short round-trip times for
retransmission buffer management, timely flow control, and
negotiation of other connection parameters.

In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-irtf-dtnrg-ltp-00.txt".
NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
