Abstract

For ensuring reliability at the transport level end-to-end multicasting. an efficient loss recovery mechanism is indispensable. We consider scalability, topology independence and robustness as the significant features that such a mechanism should offer, and demonstrate that an epidemic loss recovery approach is superior in all these aspects. We also show that the epidemic approach transparently handles network link failures by using pair-wise propagation of information, and compare it with feedback controlled loss recovery on identical network settings. The contribution of this work is the simulative analysis of recovery overhead distribution on multicast group members in the case of various link failures on the network, the impact of group size, randomized system-wide noise and message rate on scalability, and examination of various scenarios modeling the overlay networks. We investigate the important features of epidemic multicast loss recovery extensively together and reach concrete results on realistic network scenarios.
