In this paper we present a general hybrid systems modeling framework to describe the flow of traffic in communication networks. To characterize network behavior, these models use...
In a distributed network, a compact multicast scheme is a routing scheme that allows any source to send messages to any set of targets. We study the trade-off between the space us...
QoS support poses new challenges to multicast routing especially for inter-domain multicast where network QoS characteristics will not be readily available as in intra-domain multi...
—We propose a new multicast protocol called REUNITE. The key idea of REUNITE is to use recursive unicast trees to implement multicast service. REUNITE does not use class D IP add...
An ad-hoc network is the cooperative engagement of a collection of typically wireless mobile nodes without the required intervention of any centralized access point or existing ...
