EN The paper, discusses current state of art of multicast transmission in packet networks with assured QoS. Multicast transmission presents one of the most important challenges in multi-service backbones. This work proposes combining heuristic algorithms developed for building multicast distribution trees together with signaling protocols used in MPLS networks. The aim of the article is to show that these two mechanisms should cooperate to provide high quality multicast transmission in networks with complex sources and receivers distribution structure.
