Traditional phone companies can use IP Multicast technology to deliver video services over their networks; cell phone companies can use it to stream video to handheld phones and PDAs; and many cable TV companies are considering upgrading to IP technology. In addition to applications in industries seeking to provide high-quality digital video and audio, there are numerous other practical uses: multi-site corporate videoconferencing; broad distribution of financial data, stock quotes, and news bulletins; database replication; software distribution; and content caching (for example, Web site caching).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAfter an introduction that gets readers up to speed on the basics, IP Multicast with Applications to IPTV and Mobile DVB-H:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eDiscusses multicast addressing for payload and payload forwarding\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eCovers routing in a variety of protocols, including PIM-SM, CBT, PIM-DM, DVMRP, and MOSPF\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDiscusses multicasting in IPv6 environments and Multicast Listener Discovery (MLD)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFeatures examples of IP Multicast applications in the IPTV and mobile DVB-H environments\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIncludes reference RFCs and protocols placed in the proper context of a commercial-grade infrastructure for the delivery of robust, entertainment-quality linear and nonlinear video programming\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis is a concise, compact reference for practitioners who seek a quick, practical review of the topic with an emphasis on the major and most often used aspects of the technology.
