Abstract—Many distributed applications require a group of destinations to be coordinated with a single source. Multicasting is a communication paradigm to implement these distrib...
We have designed and implemented three multicast path finding algorithms for networks with directed links: an optimal algorithm based on the dynamic programming technique, a heuri...
In this paper, we propose QROUTE, an integrated framework for QoS-guaranteed multicast routing, in which a feasible multicast tree meeting multiple QoS constraints can be construc...
Resiliency to link failures in optical networks is becoming increasingly important due to the increasing data rate in the fiber. Path protection schemes attempt to guarantee a bac...
In this paper, we propose a bandwidth-efficient multicast mechanism for heterogeneous wireless networks. We reduce the bandwidth cost of an Internet Protocol (IP) multicast tree by...
