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...
In this paper, we describe a mechanism for adaptive transmission of multimedia data, which is based on real time protocols. The proposed mechanism can be used for multicast multime...
In spite of significant work on real-time content distribution, providing consistent service quality across the Internet remains a challenge. Multicast applications further exace...
As a promising solution to tackle the network heterogeneity in multicasting, layered multicast protocols such as Receiver-driven layered multicast (RLM) and Layered video multicas...
—Multirate multicast is a powerful methodology of multimedia communication in heterogenous networks. A variant of multirate multicast motivated by scalable multimedia streaming i...
