Title : The Generic Multiparty Transport Protocol (swift)
Author(s) : V. Grishchenko
Filename : draft-grishchenko-ppsp-swift-00.txt
Pages : 16

The swift is a generic multiparty (swarming) transport protocol.
The TCP, today's dominating transport protocol, is connection/
conversation-oriented. But traffic-wise, the currently dominating
usecase is content dissemination. There is a multitude of
incompatible approaches to resolve that discrepancy above/below the
transport layer: peer-to-peer, CDN, caches, mirrors, multicast, etc.
The swift aims at creating a single unified content-centric transport
protocol serving as a lingua-franca of content distribution.
To implement that ultimate data cloud model, the protocol has to
unify use cases of data download, video-on-demand and live streaming.
It must work in the settings of client-server, peer-to-peer, CDN or
peer-assisted networks, effectively blending those architectures.
