Hussien Researcher, Department of Statistics, Duhok, Iraq Today’s networks are designed to reliably transmit traffic such as data from point to point i.e., unicasting, or from point to multipoint i.e., broadcasting. Multimedia places further demands on the network. First of all, multimedia traffic, such as audio or video, cannot tolerate delays in delivery like those tolerable by plain data transfer applications. Multimedia requires that data packets arrive on time and in the proper order at the client-side. Real-time protocols and quality of service guarantees addresses this issue. Furthermore, multimedia requires transmitting a large amount of traffic over the network and thus uses far more of the network’s bandwidth than in the case of those basic network operations. Multicasting offers a far more efficient way of transmitting such traffic over the Internet than unicasting or broadcasting ever would. The subject of this paper addresses the issue of efficient routing of such multicast traffic. 2022 41 49 1141 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ 10.54216/IJWAC.040104 https://americaspg.com/journal/20/article/1141 https://americaspg.com/storage/2146.pdf
