This paper proposes the idea of emulating fat-trees in overlays for multi-source multicast applications. Fat-trees are like real trees in that their branches become thicker the clo...
— Without the multicast support from the underlying networks, overlay multicast has the advantage of implementing inter-domain multicast communications. Usually, overlay multicas...
Recently, a moderate amount of work has been reported on the use of overlay networks to support value-added network services, such as multicasting, Quality of Service (QoS), secur...
TOPLUS is a lookup service for structured peer-to-peer networks that is based on the hierarchical grouping of peers according to network IP prefixes. In this paper we present MULT...
Application-layer overlay networks have recently emerged as a promising solution for live media multicast on the Internet. A tree is probably the most natural structure for a mult...
