Mbone Webcast: Network Setup and Data Collection
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we describe the webcast implementation details and data collection during a multicast session of a technical conference held in Vancouver in Summer 2001. Audio and video signals were multicast using Internet Multicast Backbone (MBone) multimedia conferencing tools. The signals were transmitted to the MBone network using DVMRP tunneling through an ADSL line to the BCnet gigabit-capacity point of presence. Genuine traffic traces were collected during the multicast session and were later used to analyze the impact of traffic on network performance.

Webcast and Distributed Collaboration Control Automation
This proposed research will design, implement and test algorithms to automate the production of webcasts and distributed collaborations using Internet multicast streaming media technologies. We have considerable experience producing webcasts for seminars, workshops, special events, and class lectures. We have also produced videoconferences using Internet Mbone and Access Grid (AG) technologies....
متن کاملMulticast Group Behavior in the Internet's Multicast Backbone (mbone)
The Multicast Backbone (MBone) is a network overlaying the global Internet designed to support multipoint applications. In this paper, we rst give an overview of the development and architecture of the current MBone. One important characteristic of the MBone is its reliance on IP multicast which allows receivers to join and leave groups asynchronously. We describe The Mlisten data collection to...
متن کاملUsing Satellite Links as Delivery Paths in the Multicast Backbone (MBone)
The Multicast Backbone (MBone) is a virtual network that has been in operation since 1992. Through this experimental network, researchers have been learning how to deliver a scalable, one-to-many multicast service. While much of the focus on multicast research continues to be on addressing the challenges of the traditional Internet, other \non-traditional" infrastructures, like satellite, cable...
متن کاملIssues in Multicast Security
Extended Abstract Multicast communications have generated increasing interest during the past few years. This is due, in principle, to the obvious potential for improvement in the use of network resources: data is sent to a number of diierent recipients in just one transmission, instead of requiring the setup and the maintenance of distinct unicast connections. This means substantial savings bo...
متن کاملPacket Loss Correlation in the MBone Multicast Network
The recent success of multicast applications such as Internet teleconferencing illustrates the tremendous potential of applications built upon wide-area multicast communication services. A critical issue for such multicast applications and the higher layer protocols required to support them is the manner in which packet losses occur within the multicast network. In this paper we present and ana...
