【Abstract】This paper analyses the research of application layer multicast in media streaming distribution, and designs scalable application layer multicast system for live media streaming. The system based on unstructured Overlay adopts the algorithm for node’s joining and message distribution mechanism which are both based on Gossip; It describes the strategy of data buffer and data acquisition. With the function of failure detection and recovery, the robustness of the system can be enhanced. The system can be implemented in ease and has good expansibility. 【Key words】Application layer multicast; Live media streaming; Unstructured; Gossip; Message distribution
