ABSTRACT:
A router within a network uses the data of a message received at the router to determine on which links out of the router the message needs to be forwarded. The router does not need any destination information from the message, and thus, the message need not include any destination information. Instead, the router uses an annotated search data structure to determine which links correspond to consumers interested in receiving the message. The message is sent only over those links.
