Native multicast routing protocols have been built and deployed using two basic types of trees: singlesource, shortest-path trees and shared, core-based trees. Core-based multicas...
This paper presents an end-to-end reliable multicast protocol for use in environments with wireless access. It divides a multicast tree into sub-trees where subcasting within these...

In this paper1 , we present a new approach to construct multicast trees in MPLS networks. This approach utilizes MPLS LSPs between multicast tree branching node routers in order to...
We present an approach to building multicast services at the network layer using unicast forwarding and two additional building blocks: (i) ephemeral state probes, i.e. extremely l...
Bandwidth-sensitive multicast delivery controlled by routing criteria pertinent to the actual traffic flow is very costly in terms of router state and control overhead and it scal...
