Abstract

We propose the so-called backup tree algorithm to compute a set of n-1 backup multicast delivery trees from the default multicast tree for application level multicast. For each backup multicast tree exactly one link of the default multicast tree is replaced by a backup link from the set of available links. The backup tree algorithm calculates the n-1 trees with a complexity of O (m log n).
