Abstract

The article presents a proposed method to select an optimal set of the multicast protocol parameters, which are linearly independent from each other. A multidimensional hyperspace, as a mathematical model, is stated where every transport protocol parameter is represented with an individual point. A determined novel protocol parameter set is shown and the modeling procedure is presented on some examples. A multicast transport simulator has been applied to describe the performance of the transport protocols and for optimization of the parameters, providing the most reliable multicasting operation.
