Application Level Multicast is a promising approach to overcome the deployment problems of IP level multicast by establishing delivery trees using overlay links among end systems....
— Multicast services can be provided either as a basic network service or as an application-layer service. Higher level multicast implementations often provide more sophisticated...
The multicasting is defined as the distribution of the same information stream from one to many nodes concurrently. There has been an intensive research effort to design protocols...
The lecture notes cover the following topics,
Fundamentals (OSI Reference Model, Coding, Ethernet), Data Link Control (Flow Control, Error Control, HDLC, PPP), Internet Protocol ...
In this paper, we propose a bandwidth-efficient multicast mechanism for heterogeneous wireless networks. We reduce the bandwidth cost of an Internet Protocol (IP) multicast tree by...
