Abstract

In a multicast communication network, each sender communicates with multiple nodes which are in request of identical data. We summarize our studies of the minimum multicast congestion problem, which generalizes the well-known NP -hard multicommodity flow problem. Moreover, we describe efficient architectures for a network allowing n senders to connect to N receivers (n N ).
