JOINOPERATION Sample Clauses

JOINOPERATION. We assume the group has User {U1, ,Un} The new member Un+1 initiates the protocol by broadcasting a join request message that contains its own bkey (Bk(0,0)). This message is distinct from any JOIN messages generated by the underlying group communication system, although, in practice, the two might be combined for efficiency’s sake. Each current member receives this message and determines the insertion point in the tree. The insertion point is the shallowest rightmost node, where the join does not increase the height of the key tree. Otherwise, if the key tree is fully balanced, the new member joins to the root node. The sponsor is the rightmost leaf in the sub tree rooted at the insertion node. Next, each member creates a new intermediate node and a new member node, and promotes the new intermediate node to be the parent of both the insertion node and the new member node. After updating the tree, all members, except the sponsor, block. The sponsor proceeds to update its share and compute the new group key; it can do this since it knows all necessary bkeys. Next, the sponsor broadcasts the new tree which contains all bkeys. All other members update their trees accordingly and compute the new group key It might appear wasteful to broadcast the entire tree to all members, since they already know most of the bkeys. However, since the sponsor needs to send a broadcast message to the group anyhow, it might as well include more information which is useful to the new member, thus saving one unicast message to the new member (which would have to contain the entire tree).
