Abstract

See full text

This invention generally relates to a network communications technology. An implementation, described herein, performs a time-aware, best-effort, hole-filling communications retry function over a communications network. It does so in a manner that assumes successful reception of data unless the receiver indicates differently. The indication specifically identifies the missing data. With this indication, the sender resends only the specifically identified missing data. This abstract itself is not intended to limit the scope of this patent. The scope of the present invention is pointed out in the appending claims.
