Abstract
Distributed multimedia applications involve one_to_many and many_to_many communications. The most efficient method of providing this type of communications is to use multicasting, rather than unicasting. The issues associated with end_to_end flow control in this type of environment have not been addressed to-date. In this paper we first identify the requirements of an end_to_end flow control scheme for a multicast communication system. Then a protocol suitable for providing flow control in a multicast environment is presented. The operation of the protocol is described and the advantages of the prosed scheme is highlighted.
