Mobile IP (MIP) is designed for supporting mobile nodes. The technology does not sufficiently handle NEtwork MObility (NEMO). The NEMO Basic Support (NBS) [1] ensures session conti...
Application-layer multicast (ALM) can solve most of the problems of IP-based multicast. Topology-aware approach of ALM is more attractive because it exploits underlying network top...
— Group communications are important in Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANET). Multicast is an efficient method to implement the group communications. However, it is challenging to imp...
—Multicasting has not been widely adopted until now, due to lack of access control over the group members. The Authentication, Authorization and Accounting (AAA) protocols are be...
Along with the widespread deployment of the third generation cellular networks, the fast-improving capabilities of the mobile devices, content and service providers are increasing...

— Without the multicast support from the underlying networks, overlay multicast has the advantage of implementing inter-domain multicast communications. Usually, overlay multicas...
— Future communication networks should be designed with the consideration of efficiently supporting intensive multicast applications. Network coding technique proposed recently ...
—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...
