A Comparison of Server { Based and Receiver { Based Local RecoveryApproaches for Scalable Reliable Multicast Sneha

چکیده
Local recovery approaches for reliable multicast have the potential to provide signiicant performance gains in terms of reduced bandwidth and delay, and higher system throughput. In this paper we examine two local recovery approaches | one server{based, and the other receiver{based, and compare their performance. The server{based approach makes use of specially designated hosts, called repair servers, co{located with routers inside the network. In the receiver-based approach , only the end hosts (sender and receivers) are involved in error recovery. Using analytical models, we rst show that the two local recovery approaches yield signiicantly higher protocol throughput and lower bandwidth usage than an approach that does not use local recovery. Next, we demonstrate that server{based local recovery yields higher protocol throughput and lower bandwidth usage than receiver{based local recovery when the repair servers have processing power slightly higher than that of a receiver and several hundred kilobytes of buuer per multicast session.

متن کاملTCP-SMO: Extending TCP to Support Medium-Scale Multicast Applications
Scalable reliable multicast protocols have been a focus of recent research, tackling the problem of efficient reliable data delivery to an arbitrarily large number of receivers. Yet, the common applications of multicast, such as multi-point file delivery, or video streaming from a media server, typically only involve a moderate number of receivers, such as a thousand or fewer. Moreover, because...
متن کاملIRMA : A New Reliable Multicast Architecture for theInternetKang
In this paper, we propose a scalable reliable multicast architecture called IRMA which guarantees reliable, sequenced, and loosely synchronized delivery of multicast streams. The IRMA architecture uses ACK-based reliability, a hybrid local server-initiated and sender-initiated loss recovery, and only local state, and provides support for end-to-end ow control and congestion control. In a radica...
متن کاملScalable Reliable Multicast with Hierarchy and Polling
The IP multicast architecture enabled large-scale applications of multicasting on the Internet. Many of these applications require reliable dissemination of a stream of data (e.g., software distribution or stock updates) to a large number of receivers. They face, however, a scaling limitation, known as the feedback implosion problem: the sender is overwhelmed by feedback packets, leading to pac...
متن کاملReliable Multicast in Multi-Access Wireless LANs
Multicast is an efficient paradigm for transmitting data from a sender to a group of receivers. In this paper, we focus on multicast in single channel multi-access wireless local area networks (LANs) comprising several small cells. In such a system, a receiver cannot correctly receive a packet if two or more packets are sent to it at the same time, because the packets “collide”. Therefore, one ...
