Disseminating mission assignment messages always requires effective and flexible
multicast routing scheme design in airborne tactical networks, in particular, when the …

Traditional IP multicast (IPMC) maintains state per IPMC group in core devices to distribute
one-to-many traffic along tree-like structures through the network. This limits its scalability …

Multicast enables efficient one-to-many communications. Several applications benefit from
its scalability properties, eg, live-streaming and large-scale software updates. Historically …

Bit Index Explicit Replication (BIER) has been introduced by the IETF to transport IP
multicast (IPMC) traffic within a BIER domain. Its advantage over IPMC is improved …

BIER (Bit-Indexed Explicit Replication) alleviates the operational complexities of multicast
protocols (associated to the multicast tree and the incurred state in intermediate routers), by …

Bit Index Explicit Replication (BIER) is an efficient domain-based transport mechanism for IP
multicast (IPMC) that indicates receivers of a packet through a bitstring in the packet header …

Source‐specific multicast is a key technology for multicast services such as IPTV
broadcasting, which relies on IGMPv3/MLDv2 for source‐group membership signalling and …

Reliable multicast distribution is essential for some applications such as Internet of Things
(IoT) alarm information and important file distribution. Traditional IP reliable multicast usually …

A continuing trend in many scientific disciplines is the growth in the volume of data collected
by scientific instruments and the desire to rapidly and efficiently distribute this data to the …

Abstract The Hard‐state Protocol Independent Multicast—Dense Mode (HPIM‐DM) multicast
routing protocol is proposed. HPIM‐DM is a hard‐state version of PIM‐DM that overcomes …
