Internet Multicast Routing and Transport Control Protocols

چکیده
Multicasting is a mechanism to send data to multiple receivers in an efficient way. In this paper, we give a comprehensive survey on network and transport layer issues of Internet multicast. We begin with a brief introduction to the current Internet protocol multicast model—the “host group” model and the current Internet multicast architecture, then discuss in depth the following three research areas: 1) scalable multicast routing; 2) reliable multicast; and 3) multicast flow and congestion control. Our goal is to summarize the state of the art in Internet multicast and to stimulate further research in this area.

Prolog to internet multicast routing and transport control protocols - Proceedings of the IEEE
The defining mission of the Internet is to deliver data efficiently to a network of diverse groups and individuals. To do this, the Internet must be able to multicast data to large numbers of selected receivers, simultaneously and with a minimum rate of error. In addition, the protocols for achieving this must be scalable, i.e., they must be capable of operating efficiently even as the size of ...
متن کاملRouting-Based Video Multicast Congestion Control
Congestion control is critical for a multicast transport protocol to be deployed and coexist fairly with current unicast transport protocols, such as TCP. We present a new congestion control protocol for video multicast: Routingbased Video Multicast Congestion Control (RVMCC), which combats congestion from a new direction: enriching abstractions of the routing layer. RVMCC overcomes most of the...

متن کاملA Survey on Multicast Routing Approaches in Wireless Mesh Networks
Wireless mesh networks (WMNs) which mediates the broadband Internet access, have been recently received many attentions by the researchers. In order to increase capacity in these networks, nodes are equipped with multiple radios tuned on multiple channels emerging multi radio multi-channel WMNs (MRMC WMNs). Therefore, a vital challenge that poses in MRMC WMNs is how to properly assign channels ...
متن کاملInternet Draft IGMPv
The definitions of IGMPv3 and MLDv2 require new behavior within the multicast routing protocols. The additional source information contained in IGMPv3 and MLDv2 messages necessitates multicast routing protocols to manage and utilize the information. This document will describe how multicast routing protocols will interact with these source-filtering group management protocols.
