This work focuses on mobility management in a multicast environment. Traditional solutions, based either on bi-directional tunneling or on remote subscription, have different draw...
—It is important in communication networks to use routes that are as short as possible (i.e have low stretch) while keeping routing tables small. Recent advances in compact routi...
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...
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...
On-network hardware support for multi-destination traffic is a desirable feature in most multiprocessor machines. Multicast hardware capabilities enable much more effective bandwi...
