Abstract— Application-layer multicast (ALM, or overlay multicast) has been proposed to overcome limitations in IP multicast. While much measurement work (such as delay or connect...
Multicast routing uses a structure, either a tree or a mesh, to connect the receivers to the source, thus saving the bandwidth. How to share the cost among the receivers in a certa...
This paper evaluates the congestion control performance of Pseudofed, a congestion-controlled, reliable multicast transport protocol for bulk data transfer. Pseudofed's conge...
Bi-directional shared tree is an efficient routing scheme for interactive multicast applications with multiple sources. Given the open-group IP multicast service model, it is impor...
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...
