    Description

      UNICAST:

      • The sender has an AckSenderWindow, the receiver an AckReceiverWindow
      • The sender keeps retransmitting until the receiver delivers the message and acks it

      Suggestions:

      • Similar to NAKACK2, don't use a separate retransmitter for every member (window), but have just 1 retransmitter task scan the message tables and do retransmission
      • The sender's AckSenderWindow can also be replaced with a Table<Message>
      • Tthe receiver window can be replaced with a Table<Message> as well !

      If we can do this, then we have

      • only 1 proven data structure (Table<Message>)
      • not 1 retransmitter per window, but 1 for all the windows (saving space) !
