文摘This paper presents a weighted cost-benefit approach based on multicast. Grounded on overlay networkmodel, its principal idea is to construct cost function and benefit function. When estimated benefit is more than cost,multicast request is accepted. This paper demonstrates its application in packet-switched networks and points out itsmerits and shortcomings.
