    abstract =  {The Multicast File Transfer Protocol (MFTP) is a protocol that operates above UDP in the application layer to provide a reliable means for transferring files from a sender to up to thousands (potentially millions with network ''aggregators'' or relays) of multiple receivers simultaneously over a multicast group in a multicast IP enabled network. The protocol consists of two parts; an administrative protocol to set up and tear down groups and sessions, and a data transfer protocol used to send the actual file reliably and simultaneously to the multiple recipients residing in the group .},
