Testing in Resource-Constrained Environments

mHealth in Resource-Constrained Environments

The use of mobile devices in telemedicine contributes to providing more effective and efficient remote healthcare in rural areas improving patients’ life style and medical quality of service in this setting. The idea of creating mobile applications for this scenario led the authors to face important sociotechnical challenges in terms of innovation and design for resource-constrained environment...

Scalable Video Streaming Traffic Delivery in IP/UMTS Networking Environments

The paper discusses the end-to-end QoS provisioning for scalable video streaming traffic delivery over heterogeneous IP/UMTS networks. A prototype architecture is proposed, and is further validated, that explores the joint use of packet prioritization and scalable video coding (SVC) together with the appropriate mapping of UMTS traffic classes to the DiffServ traffic classes. A complete set of ...

Cooperative Internet Access in Resource Constrained Environments

Access to the Internet has become available at virtually any place in developed and developing countries, either by fixed-line or wireless access. The Internet users are used to check emails, read web pages, or see a video at any time via the Internet and are annoyed if the access does not work or does work but too slowly for the used application. The access to the Internet is stable and fast e...
