Multicast routing in datagram internetworks and extended LANs
TLDR
In this paper, the authors specify extensions to two common internetwork routing algorithms (distancevector routing and link-state routing) to support low-delay datagram multicasting beyond a single LAN, and discuss how the use of multicast scope control and hierarchical multicast routing allows the multicast service to scale up to large internetworks.Abstract:
Multicasting, the transmission of a packet to a group of hosts, is an important service for improving the efficiency and robustness of distributed systems and applications. Although multicast capability is available and widely used in local area networks, when those LANs are interconnected by store-and-forward routers, the multicast service is usually not offered across the resulting internetwork. To address this limitation, we specify extensions to two common internetwork routing algorithms—distance-vector routing and link-state routing—to support low-delay datagram multicasting beyond a single LAN. We also describe modifications to the single-spanning-tree routing algorithm commonly used by link-layer bridges, to reduce the costs of multicasting in large extended LANs. Finally, we discuss how the use of multicast scope control and hierarchical multicast routing allows the multicast service to scale up to large internetworks.read more

Gossip-Based Broadcast
TL;DR: This chapter provides an introduction to gossip-based broadcast on large-scale unstructured peer-to-peer overlay networks: it surveys the main results in the field, discusses techniques to build and maintain the overlays that support efficient dissemination strategies, and provides an in-depth discussion and experimental evaluation of two concrete protocols.

Gossip-based broadcast protocols
TL;DR: Simulations results show that, in comparison with other existing protocols, HyParView-based gossip protocols not only provide better reliability but also support higher percentages of node failures, and are able to recover faster from these failures.

A router-based technique for monitoring the next-generation of Internet multicast protocols
P. Rajvaidya,Kevin C. Almeroth +1 more
TL;DR: The goal is to develop a system that monitors multicast at the network layer; that can provide functionality for all of the network management tasks; and that can be easily extended to monitor the evolving set of multicast protocols.

Multicast redux: a first look at enterprise multicast traffic
TL;DR: This paper undertake a study of enterprise multicast traffic as observed from the vantage point of a large VPN service provider to understand the characteristics of the traffic and gain insight as to whether the current mechanisms support multicast VPNs can be improved.

Adaptive mesh based routing for efficient multicasting in highly mobile ad hoc networks
TL;DR: This work proposes an alternative for GPS enabled on-demand multicast routing protocol (ODMRP) by utilizing mean link duration metric to adapt and reduce refreshing control packets, and suggests a new reactive multicast mesh construction algorithm, using overhearing technique, which forms a fish bone structure.

TL;DR: The more the authors study the information processing aspects of the mind, the more perplexed and impressed they become, and it will be a very long time before they understand these processes sufficiently to reproduce them.

TL;DR: The basis of this book is the material contained in the first six chapters of the earlier work, The Design and Analysis of Computer Algorithms, and has added material on algorithms for external storage and memory management.
Internet Protocol
TL;DR: Along with TCP, IP represents the heart of the Internet protocols and has two primary responsibilities: providing connectionless, best-effort delivery of datagrams through an internetwork; and providing fragmentation and reassembly of data links to support data links with different maximum transmission unit (MTU) sizes.
