An integrated routing and admission control mechanism for real-time multicast connection establishment

摘要

there are two major difficulties in real-time multicast connection setup. One is the design of an efficient distributed routing algorithm which optimizes the network cost of routing trees under the real-time constraints. The other is the integration of routing with admission control into one single phase of operations. This paper presents a real-time multicast connection setup mechanism, which integrates multicast routing with real-time admission control.
