Abstract

The goal in shortest path tree (SPT) algorithm is to compute a tree rooted at the sender and spanning all the receivers such that the distance between the sender and each receiver along the tree is minimum. The two most well-known algorithms for computing shortest path trees are due to Bellman-Ford and Dijktra [BG92]. These techniques are equivalent to applying point-to-point shortest path algorithm repeatedly, once for each sender-receiver pair. SPTs by definition are per sender. Thus for multiple source multicast, separate multicast trees need to be computed, one for each sender.
