IP-Multicasting Technology Part 2: Switches vs. Routers
White Paper One of the primary difficulties encountered in multicasting over Layer-2 switches (or bridges) is that the normal response to multicast traffic is the immediate flooding of the packets to every interface on the switch... [04 May 2009]
Reliable Multicast in Wireless Sensor Networks
White Paper Multicasting in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) is an efficient way to disseminate the same data to multiple receivers. For critical tasks such as code updates, reliability would be a desirable feature, in order to use... [23 Apr 2009]
Ad Hoc Wireless Multicast With Mobility Prediction
White Paper Thus, efficient utilization of routing packets and immediate recovery of route breaks are critical in routing and multicasting protocols. An ad hoc wireless network is an infrastructureless network composed of mobile hosts. [03 Apr 2009]
