✦ Synopsis


This article presents a new heuristic algorithm called DDBMA (Dynamic Delay Bounded Multicast Algorithm) to construct a minimum-cost multicast tree. The heuristic depends on (1) bounded delay along paths from source nodes to each destination node; (2) minimum cost of the multicast tree;

(3) dynamic multicast tree status which is maintained by updating the existing multicast tree when nodes in the network request to join or leave.
