Video Quality Assurance across Ip Networks

Video Streaming across Best-Effort Wide-Area Networks with Controlled Quality Assurance Using Proxy Servers

An End-to-End Loss Discrimination Scheme for Multimedia Transmission over Wireless IP Networks

As the rapid growth of wireless IP networks, wireless IP access networks have a lot of potential applications in a variety of fields in civilian and military environments. Many of these applications, such as realtime audio/video streaming, will require some form of end-to-end QoS assurance. In this paper, an algorithm WMPLD (Wireless Multimedia Packet Loss Discrimination) is proposed for multim...

An Integrated IP-MPLS Architecture for Next Generation Networks

Next Generation Networks (NGN) is a strategy to achieve the vision of next-generation services for the delivery of quad play data, voice and video anywhere and anytime virtually across any access technology. It integrates the services of 2G/3G/4G Networks including IPv4 and IPv6 and incorporates the services of traditional networks into a single service platform with the usage of Multi-Protocol...

Providing Consistent Service Levels in IP Networks

The use of Internet as an ubiquitous communication platform puts a strong demand on service providers regarding the assurance of multiple service levels consistently. Designing flexible and simple service-oriented management strategies is crucial to support multiconstained applications conveniently and to obtain a deployable and sustainable service quality offer in multiservice IP networks. In ...

On layered video fairness on IP networks

Abstract—In this paper, we present a study of layered video fairness on IP networks. Our study is based on simulation. We investigate some issues that have direct impact on fair allocation of bandwidth between layered video and TCP, in particular: a) Congestion control mechanisms employed by layered video transfer protocols. For this part we studied the interaction of RLM with TCP. b) The effec...
