Abstract

As various multimedia communication services are increasingly required by Internet users, several signaling protocols have been proposed for the efficient control of multimedia communication services. However, the model and architecture of multimedia conferencing which is currently being standardized by IETF is not suitable to meet the requirement for the management of large-scale multimedia conferencing service. In this article, we have presented a management mechanism for distributed architecture of large scale multimedia conferencing service which is based on SIP. The high scalability is achieved by the coordinated distributed conference control and associated media processing without disruption of services. The SIP-based control mechanism for achieving the scalability has been designed in detail. Finally, the performance of the proposed architecture has been evaluated by simulation.
