Qos-Aware Service Management for Internet-Scale Distributed Applications

124 p.Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2006.In terms of application size---when an application involves one-to-many group communication, we explore resource sharing, both in network bandwidth and computational resources, by proposing a special type of multicasting---service-added multicasting. Resource sharing is further maximized as we integrate traditional data multicasting into service multicasting. We call the integrated solution hybrid multicasting.U of I OnlyRestricted to the U of I community idenfinitely during batch ingest of legacy ETD
