Overview
********
The Trickle timer library implements
`IETF RFC6206 (Trickle Algorithm) <https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6206>`_.
The Trickle algorithm allows nodes in a lossy shared medium (e.g.,
low-power and lossy networks) to exchange information in a highly
robust, energy efficient, simple, and scalable manner.
