The authors present heuristics for multicast tree construction for communication that depends on: bounded end-to-end delay along the paths from source to each destination and minimum cost of the multicast tree, where edge cost and edge delay can be independent metrics. The problem of computing such a constrained multicast tree is NP-complete. It is shown that the heuristics demonstrate good average case behavior in terms of cost, as determined by simulations on a large number of graphs.>
