Bandwidth-sensitive multicast delivery controlled by routing criteria pertinent to the actual traffic flow is very costly in terms of router state and control overhead and it scal...
Abstract-- The efficacy of end-to-end multicast transport protocols depends critically upon their ability to scale efficiently to a large number of receivers. Several research mult...
In this paper1 , we present a new approach to construct multicast trees in MPLS networks. This approach utilizes MPLS LSPs between multicast tree branching node routers in order to...
IP multicast was first proposed to improve the performance of applications that require group communications. Still, many years after its initial proposal, IP multicast is not wi...
We present a novel protocol, M3L, for multicast tree fault isolation based purely upon end-to-end information. Here, a fault is a link with a loss rate exceeding a specified thres...
