+
+## Overview
+
+**ReliaDL** is a research-oriented, fault-tolerant file transfer framework that formulates the reliable download problem as a constrained stochastic optimization over non-stationary channels. Unlike conventional download managers that employ static chunking and reactive retransmission (ARQ), ReliaDL introduces five novel algorithmic contributions spanning adaptive coding theory, algebraic verification, and optimal resource allocation.
+
+The central research question addressed by this work is:
+
+> *How can we minimize the expected data retransmission cost while guaranteeing byte-level integrity under non-stationary, bursty channel conditions, subject to throughput and resource constraints?*
+
+ReliaDL provides both a theoretical framework with provable performance bounds and a practical Python-based reference implementation suitable for empirical evaluation.
+
+---
+
+## Novel Algorithmic Contributions
+
+1. **AdaChunk -- Lyapunov-Based Adaptive Chunk Sizing.** Formulates chunk size selection as an online stochastic optimization problem. Using the Lyapunov drift-plus-penalty framework (Neely, 2010), AdaChunk dynamically adjusts chunk boundaries based on real-time network state observations, achieving an O(1/V) optimality gap with O(V) queue backlog tradeoff.
+
+2. **LtHash -- Homomorphic Hash Aggregation.** Employs lattice-based homomorphic hashing to enable O(1) whole-file integrity verification post-assembly without re-reading the file from disk. The homomorphic property H(x || y) = H(x) + H(y) mod p allows algebraic accumulation of per-chunk hashes during download.
+
+3. **Sub-Chunk Merkle Localization.** Embeds hierarchical Merkle trees within each chunk at 4 KB segment granularity. Upon detecting a chunk-level hash mismatch, the system localizes corruption to specific 4 KB segments in O(log(B/s)) comparisons, reducing retransmission by up to 99.95%.
+
+4. **Predictive Parity Injection.** Implements proactive XOR-based forward error correction (FEC) with injection rate governed by a Gilbert-Elliott two-state Markov channel model estimator. Enables zero-RTT chunk recovery without network round trips under moderate loss conditions.
+
+5. **Whittle Index Worker Scheduling.** Models multi-source worker allocation as a restless multi-armed bandit (RMAB) problem. Employs Whittle index policies (Whittle, 1988) for asymptotically optimal stochastic scheduling of download workers across heterogeneous sources.
+
+---
+
+## Key Mathematical Formulations
+
+### AdaChunk Optimization Objective
+
+```
+min  lim_{T->inf} (1/T) * sum_{t=0}^{T-1} E[C(B_t, s_t)]
+s.t. lim_{T->inf} (1/T) * sum_{t=0}^{T-1} E[G(B_t, s_t)] >= G_min
+
+Where:
+  B_t           = chunk size at time t (decision variable)
+  s_t           = (RTT_t, sigma_RTT, p_t, G_t, BDP_t)  (network state)
+  C(B, s)       = B * (1 - (1-p)^{B/MSS})              (retransmission cost)
+  G(B, s)       = B*(1-p_retry) / (T_dl + T_overhead)   (goodput)
+  Q_{t+1}       = max(Q_t - G(B_t, s_t) + G_min, 0)    (virtual queue)
+  B_t*          = argmin V*C(B,s_t) - Q_t*G(B,s_t)      (per-slot decision)
+```
+
+### LtHash Homomorphic Aggregation
+
+```
+H_file = sum_{i=0}^{k-1} H_LtHash(chunk_i) mod p
+
+Where H(x) = A * x mod p, A in Z_p^{n x m}, satisfying:
+  H(x || y) = H(x) + H(y) mod p  (homomorphic property)
+  Collision resistance reduces to SIS hardness
+```
+
+### Whittle Index Policy
+
+```
+W_i(s) = inf{ w : V_active(s, w) = V_passive(s, w) }
+
+At each slot, activate K arms with highest W_i(s_i(t))
+Achieves asymptotic optimality as N -> infinity (Weber & Weiss, 1990)

+## Quick Start
+
+### Installation
+
+```bash
+git clone https://github.com/PxA-Labs/ReliaDL.git
+cd ReliaDL
+pip install -r requirements.txt
+```
+
+### Usage
+
+```bash
+# Execute a download with adaptive chunking and homomorphic verification
+python -m src.main download \
+  --url "https://example.com/dataset.tar.gz" \
+  --output "./downloads/dataset.tar.gz" \
+  --adachunk \
+  --whittle
+
+# Resume an interrupted transfer
+python -m src.main resume \
+  --state-file "./downloads/.reliadl/dataset.tar.gz.state"
+
+# Verify file integrity
+python -m src.main verify \
+  --file "./downloads/dataset.tar.gz" \
+  --expected-hash "sha256:abcdef1234567890..."
