Whereas multicast transmission in one-to-many communications allows the operator to drastically save network resources, it also makes the routing of the traffic flows more complex ...
In this study, we investigate a cost-effective approach for protecting several multicast sessions from any link failure in an optical network. The approach, referred to as cross-s...

Various Internet applications involve multiple parties and usually adopt a one-to-many communication paradigm (multicast). The presence of multiple receivers in a multicast session...
The growing reliance of networked applications on timely and reliable data transfer requires the underlying networking infrastructure to provide adequate services even in the pres...
— Multicast-based data communication is an efficient communication scheme especially in multihop ad hoc networks where the MAC layer is based on one-hop broadcast from one sourc...
—Multicast is an important communication paradigm, also a problem well known for its difficulty (NP-completeness) to achieve certain optimization goals, such as minimum network ...
Abstract— Heterogeneous multicast is an efficient communication scheme especially for multimedia applications running over multihop networks when multicast receivers in the same...
IP multicast is increasingly seen as efficient mode of live content distribution in the Internet to significantly large subscriber bases. Despite its numerous benefits over IP u...
