Abstract

We have developed and evaluated a novel heuristic algorithm for the construction of a multicast tree with minimizing tree costs. Our algorithm works on directed asymmetric networks and is shown here to have a perform gain in terms of tree costs for Internet like networks over existing algorithms. The time complexity of our algorithm is O(D脳m) for a m-arc network with D number of members in the multicast group and is comparable to well-known algorithms for multicast tree construction. We have performed empirical evaluation that compares our algorithms with the others on large networks.
