The problem of minimizing the maximum edge congestion in a multicast communication network generalizes the well-known -hard multicommodity flow problem. We give the presently best theoretical approximation results as well as efficient implementations. In particular we show that for a network with edges and multicast requests, an -approximation can be computed in time, where bounds the time for computing an -approximate minimum Steiner tree. Moreover, we present a new fast heuristic that...
The problem of minimizing the maximum edge congestion in a multicast
communication network generalizes the well-known -hard multicommodity
flow problem. We give the presently best theoretical approximation results as

OPT + exp(1)ln)-approximation can be computed in
lnln) time, where bounds the time for
computing an -approximate minimum Steiner tree. Moreover, we present a new
