Abstract
It is proved that network coding can achieve multicast capacity and therefore improves the throughput of a multicast network significantly. This chapter will focus on applying network coding to Application layer multicast(ALM). The benefits are two folds: first, ALM is built on peer-to-peer networks whose topology can be arbitrary so it is easy to tailor the topology to facilitate network coding; second, the nodes in ALM are end hosts which are powerful enough to perform complex encoding and decoding operations.
