–Multicasting is an efficient means of distributing data in terms of resources usage. All the designated receivers or members in a multicast group share a session key. Session keys shall change dynamically to ensure both forward secrecy and backward secrecy of multicast sessions. The communication and storage complexity of multicast key distribution problem has been studied extensively. We impl...

ÐMulticast communication is a key issue in almost all applications that run on any parallel architecture and, hence, efficient implementation of of multicast is critical to the performance of multiprocessor machines. Multicast is implemented in parallel architectures either via software or via hardware. Software-based approaches for implementing multicast can result in high message latencies, w...

In disaster scenarios, communication infrastructure could be damaged or completely failed. Mobile Ad-hoc Networks (MANETs) can be used to substitute failed communication devices and thus to enable communication. As group communication is an important part in disaster scenarios, multicast will be used to address several nodes. In this paper, we propose our new reliable multicast protocol RMDA (R...

This article presents an efficient ad hoc multicast communication protocol for next-generation cyber-physical systems and computational materials. Communication with such systems would be gestural, and when cells within such materials detect a motion, they would share that information with each other. We want to achieve efficient communication among only the group of nodes that sense a particul...

Wireless mesh networks, also known as “community wireless networks”, have been attracting much attention due to its promising technology. It is becoming a major avenue for the fourth generation of wireless mobility. This is due to the revaluation of using basic radio frequency physics to provide a robust, flexible, standard-based architecture that offers instant mobile broadband communications ...

Multicast communication in the Internet has deserved an increasing attention in the last few years. Nowadays, there are more and more applications that require communication systems with multipoint communication capabilities. Multicast communication reduces both the time it takes to send data to a large set of receivers and the amount of network resources required to deliver such data. This is ...

Concurrent multicast is the problem of information dissemination from a set of source nodes to a set of destination nodes in a network with cost function: Each source node s needs to multicast a block of data B(s) to the set of destinations. We are interested in protocols for this problem which have minimum communication cost. We consider both the usual case in which any transmitted message can...
