Effective real-time anycast flow connection algorithm
Define anycast services as a group of replicated servers that may provide similar or identical services.Using anycast services can significantly simplify some applications,such as to seek appropriate servers to provide quality of service and to achieve the load balance and fault-tolerance for service availability.This paper studies a set of efficient distributed connection setup algorithms for real-time anycast flows.The algorithms can effectively seek multiple destination connections in parallel thus the best path which satisfies the requirements of the anycast flow is chosen.
