		These goals conflict because adding too many of a legislator's political party members to his or her district, and hence piling up expected votes in the general election, might leave the incumbent vulnerable to a now larger opposition faction within his or her party primary.
		First, individual legislators involved in redistricting can be seen as simultaneously attempting to maximize three partly inconsistent goals: they try to increase the probability of winning or avoiding a primary, winning the general election (conditional on winning the primary), and helping their party win a majority of seats in the legislature.

		Features are added to account for parametrisation, generation, and passing of names, including the use, following Milner, of dependent sum and product to account for (unlocalised) input and output, and explicit parametrisation on names using lambda-abstraction and application.
		However, the large packet delay -due to the large fixed delay in the workstation- implies that the end-to-end delay -from generation to presentation to the user- can be large which may be unacceptable from a user perception point of view.
		It is hence necessary to either speed-up the CPU to reduce the protocol processing time and hence the packet delay or consider alternate strategies and schemes for the transport and play-out of multimedia streams.
