3. Description of broadcast service engineering based on multicast slices
3.1 Key features
We consider several networks that support multicast network slices. These multicast slices can be combined with other multicast slices to provide access to value-added content.
For example, a service provider can use multicast slices deployed in different networks to provide a service whose traffic will be routed in a multicast slice resulting from the combination of multicast slices deployed in the different networks mentioned above. This is known as a "multi-domain slice" (or "stitched slices" or "hierarchical slices").
Such a multicast slice can reflect a hierarchical structure (figure 5...
