webcasting "broadcast", sometimes just called "push") {Multicasting} on the {Internet}. Webcasting implies {real-time} {streaming} transmission of encoded {video} (or {audio}) under the control of the {server} to multiple recipients who all receive the same content at the same time. This is in contrast to normal web browsing which is controlled from the {browser} by individual users and may take arbitrarily long to deliver a complete document. {Pointcast} and {Marimba} were early pioneers. {International Webcasting Association (http://www.webcasters.org/)}.
