Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, implementing and using techniques for organizing a communication session between two or more media aware network entities in a computer network. A computer network includes several media aware network entities (MANEs). The MANEs include data writers and data readers. A model for communication between the MANEs is provided. The communication model includes: subsets of planes associated with a session between two or more MANEs in a domain, each plane representing a collection of MANEs partaking on a subset of topics within the domain; a complementary subset of planes common to all participating MANEs of a domain, an aggregation of domains and topics, and methods for addressing namespaces within the topics. Data streams are exchanged in a session between two MANEs in the computer network according to the communication model. Techniques for distributing a data stream in a computer network are also described.
