Constructing efficient self-organising application layer multicast overlays

This thesis investigates efficient techniques to build both low cost (i.e. low resource usage) and low delay ALM trees. We focus on self-organising distributed proposals that use limited information about the underlying physical network, limited coordination between the members, and construct overlays with bounded branching degree subject to the bandwidth constraint of each individual member.
