Authors: Paolo Micanti, Giuseppe Baruffa, Fabrizio Frescura Book chapter in Advances in Mobile WiMAX (in press) Title: A Packetization Technique for D-Cinema Contents Multicasting over Metropolitan Wireless Networks Abstract: This chapter presents a packetization strategy for the reliable electronic distribution of Digital Cinema (D-Cinema, DC) content. In particular, a reliable multicast protocol was used to send high definition video content to multiple receivers, allowing them to correctly receive the entire stream. The NORM protocol was chosen as multicast protocol, because of its guarantees on reliable transmission of both files and data. The target result is to send reliably DC contents, both using a single large file or a set of separate files.
