Abstract

The development of the media oriented systems transport (MOST) network [Scholles et al. 2001; MOST 2003] stemmed from the necessity for a P2P network that had high data speeds, but was also cost effective. The MOST networks were essentially designed for multimedia applications in the automotive environment; however, due to its efficiency, it is being increasingly used for home networks too. Also, the implementation of optical fibres at its physical layer ensures high reliability under adverse circumstances. Some of the key features of the MOST networks are ease of use; cost effectiveness, availability of synchronous and asynchronous data transfer mode, flexibility, and a wide range of applications [Shrinath and Emadi 2004].
