Abstract
In this paper we present an algorithm for flow assignment in active nomadic computation. We present the algorithm with a novel active application - a cognizant video streaming mechanism which is capable of negotiating local network state based rate and let the video propagate over an extreme network with highly asymmetric link and node capacities. As a platform the stream uses the computing power of a quasi-active network. As a result the passing video stream appears as a self-organizing stream, which automatically senses the network asymmetry and adapts itself as the packets diffuse via the active subnet.
