IEEE Workshop On Pervasive Group Communication (PerGroup) 2011

More information on IEEE Workshop On Pervasive Group Communication (PerGroup)

Group communications have passed from research to deployment and back to a research issue. Newly deployed services, in particular IPTV, P2P content distribution, and collaborative applications, are stimulating current research on multicast, broadcast, concast, and anycast. Emerging design issues for a future multi-service Internet combined with the dynamic development of wireless access techonologies challenge the community to rethink the position of group communications along the stack.
