A flexible network architecture for data multicasting in ?multiservice networks?.

The paper describes a canonical model of data-transport architecture that offers a flexible framework for implementations of data multicasting on backbone networks to support multiservice applications (e.g., videoconferencing, digital TV broadcast). The architecture is based on acyclic graph structu...
