Overlay networks among cooperating hosts have recently emerged as a viable solution to several challenging problems, including multicasting, routing, content distribution, and pee...
— Without the multicast support from the underlying networks, overlay multicast has the advantage of implementing inter-domain multicast communications. Usually, overlay multicas...
— Multicast services can be provided either as a basic network service or as an application-layer service. Higher level multicast implementations often provide more sophisticated...
— Placing multicast proxies on the Internet can largely reduce the delivery delay of Internet live media streaming using overlay multicast mechanisms. In this paper, we propose a...
— This paper studies multicast application overlay networks in a repeated-game framework. In these overlays, users have both the motivation and the means to alter their position...
