Design and Implementation of Customer-based OMP Architecture

The definition of multicast routing was already described more than 20 years ago. Many routing algorithms and the evaluation of these algorithms based on software techniques have been proposed since the year 2000. Multicast is required in various environments with consideration of transportation quality and different requirements. This means the requirements of multicast service increase steadily and it´s the time to meet economic and time-to-market with quality of service. In this paper, we describe the process of analysis, design and implementation of applying overlay multicast protocol (OMP) to application software according to the arrangement with a client that wanted to apply specific requirements. In perspectives of software engineering, we share our experiences and development process for applying OMP.
