Abstract

The delay and delay variation-bounded multicast tree (DVBMT) problem is known to be NP-complete. In this paper, we propose an efficient distributed dynamic multicast routing algorithm to produce routing trees with delay and delay variation constraints. The proposed algorithm is fully distributed, and supports the dynamic reorganizing of the multicast tree in response to changes for the destination. Simulations demonstrate that our algorithm is better in terms of tree delay and routing success ratio as compared with other existing algorithms, and performs excellently in delay variation performance under lower time complexity, which ensures it to support the requirements of real-time multimedia communications more effectively.
