Abstract—Several recently proposed multicast protocols use inpacket Bloom filters to encode multicast trees. These mechanisms are in principle highly scalable because no per-fl...
Existing multicast traffic engineering (TE) solutions tend to use explicit routing through MPLS tunnels. In this paper we shift away from this overlay approach and address the band...
This paper focuses on understanding the scale and the distribution of “state overhead” (briefly load) that is incurred on the routers by various value-added network services,...
In this paper we propose an "on demand" multicast routing protocol for a wireless, mobile, multihop network. The proposed scheme has two key features: (a) it is based on...
In general topology networks, routing from one node to another over a tree embedded in the network is intuitively a good strategy, since it typically results in a route length of O...
