— We consider a multicast resource allocation problem for the downlink in OFDM-based wireless cellular network systems. In a conventional multicast system, to accommodate users w...
— we propose a novel multicast scheme that can provide quality-of-service (QoS) to multicast service over IEEE 802.11 wireless LANs by utilizing MAC layer relay. We develop the d...
Despite the fact that global multicast is still not possible in today’s Internet, many local networks are already multicastcapable (the so-called multicast “islands”). Howev...
Overlay multicast tree is widely used to support large-scale real-time multimedia applications. The scalability and the robustness are two key issues in the overlay structure desi...
The recent growth of the World Wide Web has sparked new research into using the Internet for novel types of group communication, like multiparty videoconferencing and real-time st...
—In this paper, we propose multiple tree construction schemes and routing protocols for video streaming over wireless ad hoc networks. The basic idea is to split the video into m...
Abstract— This paper proposes the ASIMcast (Any-Source Implicit Multicast) protocol which builds a bidirectional tree for routing of multicast traffic. ASIMcast includes feature...
Abstract— This paper presents a study of our proposed architecture for the setup of a MultiPoint-to-MultiPoint (MP2MP) Label Switched Path (LSP). This form of LSP is needed for e...

In spite of significant work on real-time content distribution, providing consistent service quality across the Internet remains a challenge. Multicast applications further exace...
In this paper we present an extension to the OLSR unicast routing protocol to support multicast routing in mobile ad hoc networks. The proposed protocol is based on Multicast Overl...
