Abstract

There is a need to create a model for the distribution of data in computer networks such that almost every computer system on the network participates in the consumption and re-distribution of the data and no computer system is over-loaded in the process. This paper presents a network design that will offer an extremely low latency that is required in implementation. Also, it creates a new algorithmic pattern in streaming real-time data to an unlimited number of subscribers. And this ensures that all systems receive the same data at every instance so that no user consumes the data before others. The completion of this project has demonstrated the advantages of distributing data in a balanced dynamic tree pattern and its usage spans data replication and synchronisation in databases, application server clustering and realtime multimedia broadcast; although this work focuses primarily its use in the latter.
