Abstract

A computing device that is configured for synchronizing multicast data distribution is described. The computing device includes a processor and instructions stored in memory. The computing device reads a block of data and sends the block of data via multicast. It is determined whether a packet in the block of data requires a new mapped file view. This determination is based on the capacity of a current mapped file view on a target node. The computing device delays sending more data if the new mapped file view is required.
