Fairness-oriented multicast routing for distributed interactive applications

Facing the challenges of network services on the edge, such as routing considering Quality of Service, is a crucial issue for current networking research efforts. Multicast routing is an essential technique for delivering routing services at a high level of optimization from the perspective of operators and application providers when there are user groups. Furthermore, routing that considers latency constraints has obstacles when it comes to merging different conditions in the solution, particularly when there is a need for fairness in the users’ communication. This work addresses this fairness requirement in multicasting, showing an efficient solution to increase the balance in routing by choosing better options for fair group interaction.
