Overcast: Reliable Multicasting with an Overlay Network

by John Jannotti, David K. Gifford, Kirk L. Johnson, M. Frans Kaashoek, James W. O'Toole, Jr. , 2000
"... Overcast is an application-level multicasting system that can be incrementally deployed using today's Internet infrastructure. These properties stem from Overcast's implementation as an overlay network. An overlay network consists of a collection of nodes placed at strategic locations in a ..."

Bayeux: An architecture for scalable and fault-tolerant wide-area data dissemination

by Shelley Q. Zhuang, Ben Y. Zhao, Anthony D. Joseph, Randy H. Katz, John D. Kubiatowicz , 2001
"... The demand for streaming multimedia applications is growing at an incredible rate. In this paper, we propose Bayeux, an efficient application-level multicast system that scales to arbitrarily large receiver groups while tolerating failures in routers and network links. Bayeux also includes specific ..."

Application-Level Multicast Using Content-Addressable Networks

by Sylvia Ratnasamy, Mark Handley, Richard Karp, Scott Shenker , 2001
"... Most currently proposed solutions to application-level multicast organize the group members into an application-level mesh over which a DistanceVector routing protocol, or a similar algorithm, is used to construct source-rooted distribution trees. The use of a global routing protocol limits the s ..."

the scalability of these systems. Other proposed solutions that scale to larger numbers of receivers do so by restricting the multicast service model to be single-sourced. In this paper, we propose an application-level multicast scheme capable of scaling to large group sizes without restricting the service

SCRIBE: A large-scale and decentralized application-level multicast infrastructure

by Miguel Castro, Peter Druschel, Anne-Marie Kermarrec, Antony Rowstron - IEEE JOURNAL ON SELECTED AREAS IN COMMUNICATIONS (JSAC , 2002
"... This paper presents Scribe, a scalable application-level multicast infrastructure. Scribe supports large numbers of groups, with a potentially large number of members per group. Scribe is built on top of Pastry, a generic peer-to-peer object location and routing substrate overlayed on the Internet, ..."

Exokernel: An Operating System Architecture for Application-Level Resource Management

by Dawson R. Engler, M. Frans Kaashoek, James O’toole , 1995
"... We describe an operating system architecture that securely multiplexes machine resources while permitting an unprecedented degree of application-specific customization of traditional operating system abstractions. By abstracting physical hardware resources, traditional operating systems have signifi ..."

significantly limited the performance, flexibility, and functionality of applications. The exokernel architecture removes these limitations by allowing untrusted software to implement traditional operating system abstractions entirely at application-level. We have implemented a prototype exokernel-based system

A Case for End System Multicast

by Yang-hua Chu, Sanjay G. Rao, Srinivasan Seshan, Hui Zhang - in Proceedings of ACM Sigmetrics , 2000
"... Abstract — The conventional wisdom has been that IP is the natural protocol layer for implementing multicast related functionality. However, more than a decade after its initial proposal, IP Multicast is still plagued with concerns pertaining to scalability, network management, deployment and suppor ..."

and support for higher layer functionality such as error, flow and congestion control. In this paper, we explore an alternative architecture that we term End System Multicast, where end systems implement all multicast related functionality including membership management and packet replication. This shifting

Receiver-driven Layered Multicast

by Steven McCanne, Van Jacobson, Martin Vetterli , 1996
"... State of the art, real-time, rate-adaptive, multimedia applications adjust their transmission rate to match the available network capacity. Unfortunately, this source-based rate-adaptation performs poorly in a heterogeneous multicast environment because there is no single target rate — the conflicti ..."

SplitStream: High-Bandwidth Multicast in Cooperative Environments
