Researchers have thus far considered scheduling unicast and
multicast traffic separately, and have paid little attention to
integrated schedulers. To this end, we present a new integrated
scheduler that considers both unicast and multicast traffic
simultaneously and also addresses key shortcomings of existing
approaches. Specifically, we outline a scheduler that achieves
100\% throughput, and unlike existing schemes, do not require a
tuning knob. Moreover, from our extensive simulation studies, we
show that it works well in uniform, non-uniform and bursty traffic
scenarios.
