Forwarding data, especially data packets, involves all suitable nodes receiving data, deciding using parameter(s) whether to forward to next or destination node or sender selecting node for forwarding

摘要

The method involves forwarding data via different nodes (1-4,6) to the destination node (Z). A node is suitable for forwarding to the next node to the destination node if it can receive data from the sender. All suitable nodes can receive the data and each node can decide based on at least one parameter whether to forward to the next node or to the destination node or the sender (S) can select a node for forwarding by exchanging messages.
