This document specifies TCP-Friendly Multicast Congestion
Control (TFMCC). TFMCC is a congestion control mechanism for
multicast transmissions in a best-effort Internet environment.
It is a single-rate congestion control scheme, where the
sending rate is adapted to the receiver experiencing the worst
network conditions. TFMCC is reasonably fair when competing
for bandwidth with TCP flows and has a relatively low
variation of throughput over time, making it suitable for
applications such as streaming media where a relatively smooth
sending rate is of importance.

In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-rmt-bb-tfmcc-04.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.
