nGoals
–different transaction services, offloads applications
napplication can select reliability, efficiency
–support of different communication scenarios
nclass 0: unreliable message transfer
nclass 1: reliable message transfer without result message
nclass 2: reliable message transfer with exactly one reliable result message
–supports peer-to-peer, client/server and multicast applications
–low memory requirements, suited to simple devices (< 10kbyte )
–efficient for wireless transmission
nsegmentation/reassembly
nselective retransmission
nheader compression
noptimized connection setup (setup with data transfer)
