Topology awareness link stress and delay stretch considerably, therefore it is a very important metric for ALM. This work describes a novel, highly stable and low overhead ALM approach using a binning technique to cluster nearby receivers, referred to as Bincast. Bincast uses a constant number of landmarks to cluster nearby nodes. Then, it constructs a k-ary tree between cluster members. The most stable node is selected as the head of each cluster. Cluster heads are connected to the source through a higher level tree. Detailed performance evaluation revealed that Bincast has a lower delay stretch than similar methods with approximately the same stress. Besides, it is more stable due to the selection of stable nodes as cluster heads. IS - 2 PB - OICC Press KW - Fault Tolerant, Binning, Stability, Multicast. Host, Stress EN -
