A Multicast Routing Algorithm for P2P Networks

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNCS,volume 3032))

Abstract

Multicast communication is one of particular important services in peer-to-peer networking context. The problem of finding a minimum cost multicast routing is NP-completeness. We present a novel solution to improve the MPH algorithm. The cost of multicast tree generated by the proposed algorithm with the same time as MPH is not larger than that of MPH in the worst case.
