Abstract

We present a new multicast algorithm called WAVE for establishing source-specific multicast trees. WAVE meets multiple quality of service requirements (constraints) such as delay, cost, and available bandwidth, simultaneously. Simulation results show that WAVE performs very good in terms of delay and cost for both, static and dynamic multicast groups, when compared to the best multicast algorithms known.
