Design differentiated service multicast with selfish agents

Differentiated service (DiffServ) is a mechanism to provide the Quality of Service (QoS) with a certain performance guarantee. In this paper, we study how to design DiffServ multicast when every relay link is an independent selfish agent. We assume that each link ei is associated with a (privately known) cost coefficient ci such that the cost of ei to provide a transmission service with bandwidth demand x is ci
