Abstract— Traditionally, reliable multicast protocols are deterministic in nature. It is precisely this determinism that tends to become their limiting factor when aiming at reli...
The global deployment of IP multicast has been slow due to the difficulties related to heterogeneity, scalability, manageability, and lack of a robust inter-domain multicast rout...
Today, the use of anycast address is quite limited. One of the reasons is because there is no routing protocol providing a global anycasting service. In this paper we design and im...
