This paper proposes a credit-based congestion control scheme for multicast communication which employs application-specific processing at intermediate network nodes. The control scheme was designed not only to take advantage of credit-based flow control for unicast communication, but also to achieve flexibility supported by active network technology. The resultant active multicast congestion control scheme is able to meet the different requirements of various multicast applications in terms of reliability and end-to-end latency. The performance of the proposed control scheme was evaluated using both discrete-event simulations and experiments on a prototype active network implementation. The results show that the proposed scheme performs very well in terms of fairness, responsiveness, and scalability. The implementation experiences also confirmed the feasibility of the scheme in practice.
