Effective Performance Metrics for Multimedia Mission-critical Communication Systems

Cross Layered Network Condition Aware Mobile-Wireless Multimedia Sensor Network Routing Protocol for Mission Critical Communication

The high pace emergence in wireless technologies have given rise to an immense demand towards Quality of Service (QoS) aware multimedia data transmission over mobile wireless multimedia sensor network (WMSN). Ensuring reliable communication over WMSN while fulfilling timely and optimal packet delivery over WMSN can be of great significance for emerging IoT ecosystem. With these motivations, in ...

Retransmission Scheme for MPEG Streams in Mission Critical Multimedia Applications

Since multimedia data are characterized by continuity and massive volume, compression techniques such as MPEG are used for efficient transmission. However, a transmission error occurring at a frame tends to be propagated to other frames because MPEG frames cross-reference one another upon presentation. Due to time constraints, it is usual to discard without retransmission the data which have tr...

Ada 2005 for Mission-Critical Systems

For the development of mission-critical software, the choice of programming language makes a significant difference in meeting the requirements of exacting safety standards and, ultimately, high-reliability applications. Ada has a long history of success in the safety-critical domain, with features such as strong typing, that help early error detection, and well-defined semantics. The language ...

Designing Resilient Mission Critical Systems

Mission critical systems are characterized by their extreme availability and QoS requirements, often associated with time-critical operations in potentially compromised, adversarial environments. Such systems needed to be robust and resilient in order to handle benign anomalous behavior or intentional cyber attacks and learn from experience to improve its resistance to subsequent attacks. The s...
