DiffServ networks has become an important research dimension in
recent years. Although multicasting and differentiated services are
two complementary technologies, the integration of the two
technologies is a non-trivial task due to architectural conflicts
between them. A popular solution proposed is to extend the
functionality of the DiffServ components to support multicasting. In
this paper, we propose an algorithm to construct an efficient QoSdriven
multicast tree, taking into account the available bandwidth per
service class. We also present an efficient way to provision the
limited available bandwidth for supporting heterogeneous users. The
proposed mechanism is evaluated using simulated tests. The
simulated result reveals that our algorithm can effectively minimize
the bandwidth use and transmission cost},
