Abstract :
The authors present a new scalable and reliable ATM multicast algorithm (SRAM) that can provide reliable data transfer services. This algorithm employs the resource management cell consolidation mechanism for available bit rate point-to-multipoint connections which resolves the feedback implosion problem without increasing the number of connections according to the number of receivers. The proposed scheme is compared with other reliable multicast schemes through numerical analysis under reasonable assumptions
