Scalable Application Layer Multicast
S. Banerjee, B. Bhattacharjee, C. Kommareddy, “Scalable Application Layer Multicast,” ACM SIGCOMM Conference, (August 2002). [PDF] Summary Deployment of network layer multicast requires support from the underlying infrastructure. Like many other proposals/protocols with similar requirements, it faced the same fate: no one deployed it. This paper presents a scalable application layer multicast protocol, NICE, designed ...

Scalable Reliable Multicast
S. Floyd, V. Jacobson, S. McCanne, C-G Liu, L. Zhang, “A Reliable Multicast Framework for Light-weight Sessions and Application Level Framing,” ACM SIGCOMM Conference, (August 1995). [PDF] Summary Unlike unicast transmissions where requirements for different reliable, sequential data delivery are fairly general, different multicast applications have different requirements for reliability. The authors argue that designing ...
