Based on the original idea of optimal maintenance of a spanning tree (OMST), we improve this algorithm considerably and propose our multicast protocol, as well as implement it as an extension of simulator NS-2. We compare STM with MAODV and PUMA using NS-2 through various scenarios, the results show that STM attains top packet delivery ratio, while keeping less overhead than others. As far as we know, our implementation is the very first implementation inspired by OMST in practice. date: 2011 date_type: published official_url: http://rev-conf.org/atc2011/ contact_email: nguyendaitho@vnu.edu.vn full_text_status: public pres_type: paper pagerange: 169-173 event_title: 2011 International Conference on Advanced Technologies for Communications event_location: Danang City, Vietnam event_dates: 2-4 August 2011 event_type: conference refereed: TRUE referencetext: [1] B.
