This paper addresses multicast routing in multi-hop optical networks employing wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM). We consider a model in which multicast communication requests...
Network-wide broadcasting and multicasting are two important routing schemes used in group communications. In network-wide broadcasting, generated packets at the source node are di...
Group communication protocols are used in fault-tolerant systems to maintain strong replica consistency. The FaultTolerant Multicast Protocol (FTMP) described here is a group comm...

Resource and service discovery, data transfer or replica management, are some examples of basic operations of a grid which can gain efficiency by using multicast transmission tech...
Abstract— In this paper, we consider the design of a reliable multicast facility over an unreliable multicast network. Our multicast facility has several interesting properties: ...
