In general, multi-constrained path selection with or without optimization is a NP-complete problem that can not be exactly solved in polynomial time. Hence, accurate constraints-based routing algorithms with a fast running time are scarce, perhaps even non-existent.

This paper presents a heuristic algorithm for the QoS multicast routing (HAQMR). This heuristic algorithm deals with delay and bandwidth constraints and has low cost. The HAQMR attempts to significantly reduce the overhead for constructing a multicast tree, the proof for correctness of the HAQMR is given, and the performance of the HAQMR is evaluated by simulations. The study shows that HAQMR provides an available approach to QoS multicast routing.展开更多
