Many network applications that need to distribute content and data to a large number of clients use a hybrid scheme in which one (or more) multicast channel is used in parallel to...
–This paper addresses the efficient multicast dissemination of bulk data from a single server to numerous clients. The challenge is complex: a client may commence reception at ar...
— Transmission scheduling is a key design problem in wireless multi-hop networks and many scheduling algorithms have been proposed to maximize the spatial reuse and minimize the ...
— While multicast has been studied extensively in many domains such as content streaming and file sharing, there is little research applying it to synchronous collaborations invo...
—Since the provision of both unicast and multicast services is expected for the next generation of multi-carrier wireless systems, the allocation of resources for this combinatio...
