Abstract

This paper addresses the problem of routing many-to-many multicast connections with bandwidth reservation. We devise a routing algorithm which provides not only connectivity but also bandwidth among multicast members at a low cost. After briefly addressing the problem complexity (NP-Complete), we move on to design polynomial time algorithms, for scalability purposes, some of which with worst case bounds on performance. A simulation study is used to illustrate the algorithms' performance and trade offs.
