Multicast is a network technology for the delivery of information to a group of destinations simultaneously using the most efficient strategy to deliver the messages over each link of the network only once, creating copies only when the links to the multiple destinations split. This thesis designed a group certificate that can authenticate group information safety between cores based on CBT, proposed a multicast security system that can control some security key.

Receiver access control scheme is proposed to protect multicast distribution tree from DoS(Denial-of Service) attack induced by unauthorized use of IGMP(Internet group management protocol), by extending the security-related functionality of IGMP. Based on a specific network and business model adopted for commercial deployment of IP multicast applications, key management scheme is also presented for bootstrapping the proposed access control as well as accounting and billing for CP(Content Provider), NSP(Network Service Provider), and group members.

Overlay Multicast is a promising approach to overcome the implementation problem of IP multicast. Real time services like internet broadcasting are provided by overlay multicast technology due to the complex nature of IP multicast and the high cost to support multicast function. Since multicast members can dynamically join or leave their multicast group, it is necessary to keep a reliable overlay multicast tree to support real time service without delay. In this paper, we consider path level reliability that connects each member node. The problem is formulated as a binary integer programming which maximizes the reliability of multicast tree. Tabu search based algorithm is presented to solve the NP-hard problem.

In order to securely transmit multicast data packets in a mobile environment where frequent join/leave events are a characteristic of the environment, there is a need for a new secure and efficient group key management solution. We propose a secure group key generation/distribution solution providing scalability and reliability. Using this solution, when a mobile node, which is in a multicast session, enters a new domain, the agent of the domain joins the multicast session and coordinates its data packets with the mobile node. The agent encrypts and transmits subsequent data packets to the mobile node, using a local one-time pad key. This key is generated with FI sequences, enabling the mobile node to regenerate the same data packet, based on the information sent by the agent. Our performance analysis demonstrates that the proposed solution can significantly reduce the number of key generations and distributions, when it is applied to the hierarchical mobile IPv6 network.

Although it is raising expectation of multimedia multicast services in various wireless networks, it requires an efficient IP multicast group membership management in wireless environment. However, the existing IGMPv3/MLDv2 protocols are too heavy; they are not suitable for wireless environment. Moreover they suffer from a number of problems, such as unreliable signaling, slow state transition, low spectral efficiency, bulk report, and interrupting dormant receivers. In this paper, we propose a wireless host agent (WHA)-based IP multicast group management scheme that requires a reduced number of signaling, which also solves such problems effectively. We develop an analytic model to quantify costs of bandwidth usage and signaling overhead, and perform comparison and analysis of the proposed scheme.

This paper proposed for allotment of group key's rekey interval required from secure multicast environment. New group key distribution occurs in two cases: one is periodical update and the other is permitted or unpermitted withdrawal of group member. In later case, the group controller distributes new group key to member except withdrawal member because it can't predict precisely. In former case, the group member who cheated the group can adjust the rekey interval. Using relation between security level, overhead and cost from rekey interval, this paper suggests effective rekey interval allotment through probable performance analysis in large dynamic group.

Multicast protocols are efficient methods of group communication such as video conference, Internet broadcasting and On-Line Game, but they do not support the various transmission protocol services like a reliability guarantee, FTP, or Telnet that TCPs do. The Purpose or this Paper is to find a method to utilize multicast routers can simultaneously transport multicast packets and TCP packets. For multicast network scalability and error recovery the existing SRM(Scalable Reliable Multicast)method has been used. Three packets per TCP transmission control window site are used for transport and an ACK is used for flow control. A CBR(Constant Bit Rate) and a SRM is used for UDP traffic control. Divided on whether a UDP multicast packet and TCP unicast packet is used simultaneously or only a UDP multicast packet transport is used, the multicast receiver with the longest delay is measured on the number of packets and its data receiving rate. It can be seen that the UDP packet and the TCP's IP packet can be simultaneously used in a server router.

In this paper, we investigate a rekey mechanism for a secure multicast group communications and relate the mechanism to the loss of information from group key exposal. We also combine cost for the information loss and cost for group key updates and analyze the optimum rekey interval. Using the results of the analysis in this paper, we can manage a secure multicast group efficiently with the minimal cost on the bases of number of group members, each member's security level and withdrawal rates.

그룹간 공동 작업이나 화상 회의와 같은 그룹 통신의 수요가 늘어나면서 멀티캐스팅을 이용한 효율적인 데이타 전송에 대한 요구가 증가하고 있다. 특히 오디오나 비디오 데이타와는 달리 공동 문서 작업이나 그룹간 문서 전송을 위한 데이타 처리를 위해서는 어느 정도의 시간 손실이 있더라도 신뢰성을 보장할 수 있는 멀티캐스트 프로토콜이 요구된다. 그러나 멀티캐스트 전송에서의 신뢰성을 보장하기 위하여 손실 패킷에 대한 재전송 패킷이 전체 그룹으로 멀티캐스트 되는 것은 네트워크 상에 트래픽을 폭증시키는 요인이 된다. 이에 본 논문에서는 지역 그룹에서의 오류 회복을 위한 재전송 제한 기법을 제안하여 손실 패킷의 재전송 과정에서 발생하는 트래픽의 폭주를 제어하고자 한다. 이것은 재전송 패킷이 중복없이 다중 수신자에게 전송될 수 있도록 하여 그룹 내의 재전송 패킷의 양을 줄이고 필요없는 중복 패킷이 네트워크의 효율을 저하시키는 것을 방지하고자 하는 데 그 목적이 있다. Abstract As the size and the geographic span of communication groups increases, efficient data transmission schemes using Multicast service become more and more essential. Especially, unlike audio and video applications, for some collaborative applications and other data delivery components which require ordered and lossless delivery of data, Reliable Multicast Service is needed to ensure consistent presentation across multiple views. Thus error recovery by retransmission of loss data is provided in order to guarantee the reliability of multicast transmission protocol. However, redundant retransmission packets by multicast may cause traffic implosion on the Internet and it can be aggravated with continuous retransmission.This paper describes a Restricted Retransmission Mechanism as an error recovery method of multicast service in a local group, which can handle traffic implosion in retransmission process. It reduces redundant retransmission packets flowing into a local group and supports reliable multicast transmission. The goal of this mechanism is to reduce retransmission packets and decrease the load for group members and networks.

Multicast in mobile host has the problem of hast mobility, multicast decision, triangle routing, tunnel convergence, implosion of retransmission, and bandwidth waste. In particular, the bandwidth waste in radio is a definite factor that decreases transmission rate. To solve the problems, this paper proposes a new multicast transmission protocol called FIM(Forward Error Correction Integrated Multicast), which supports reliable packet recovery mechanism by integrating If Mobility Support for the host mobility, IGMP(Interned Group Management Protocol) for the group management, and DVMRP(Distance Vector Multicast Routing Protocol) for the multicast routing, and it also uses FEC and the local recovery method based on receiver. The performance measurement is performed by dividing the losses into the homogeneous independent loss, the heterogeneous independent loss, and the shared source link loss model.. The result shows that the performances improves in proportion to the size of local areal group when the size of transmission group exceeds designated size. This indicates FIM is effective in the environment where there are much of data and many receivers in the mobile host.
