Thats a unique idea.You should consider the following idea to enhance your idea so that it would impact uniquely: The round trip network delay times beten pairs of nodes in a multicast session is a key parameter; it is used in suppressing the implosion of request and repair packets, in detecting congestion, etc.  presents a protocol to estimate the delays beten every pair of nodes in a multicast group. While existing protocols use O(n) multicast messages with O(n) size each (total of O(n/sup 2/) bits), our protocol requires O(n) multicasts with only O(1) size each (total of O(n) bits); here, n is the session size. It does not require clocks to be synchronized, or any knowledge of network topology and the session size.  incorporate our protocol into the SRM (scalable reliable multicast) protocol (Rhee et al., 1999) and show by our simulations that, (i) our delay estimation protocol is reasonably accurate, (ii) it is just as effective as existing delay estimation protocols in suppressing repair and request traffic in SRM, and (iii) it has significantly lor overhead than the existing delay estimation protocols. Furthermore, our protocol can be extended to run within a hierarchically structured multicast protocol such as RMTP (reliable multicast transport protocol) (Paul et al., 1996). Here the goal is to estimate round trip delays from a sender to each receiver. Our protocol ensures that only the immediate children of the sender send feedback messages directly to the sender, thereby avoiding feedback implosion. Our delay estimation protocols therefore significantly enhance the scalability of unstructured multicast protocols such as SRM, as ll as tree-structured multicast protocols such as RMTP.
