چکیده

Recent progress in communication technologies leads to new networks architectures and new developments of distributed multimedia applications. Multimedia data are characterised by high throughputs, continuous flows with temporal constraints and synchronisation requirements to ensure their presentation coherence. Actual communication networks can not provide all of these services together (high throughputs, quality and temporal constraints respect). But communication supports and services multiplicity open a new way of thinking : the choice of a communication support depending on the application constraints. If this multiplicity provides some positive aspects, several difficulties have to be coped, as end-to-end services heterogeneity. This leads us to conceive and realise a new “multi-network” communication architecture which takes into account the specific needs of multimedia applications. On one hand, when several networks interfaces are available, a protocol allowing to select the best communication interface for a multimedia flow is defined. To preserve multimedia synchronisation, partial order mechanisms are integrated to the protocol. On the other hand, when a data flow have to cross heterogeneous network domains, a solution preserving the quality of service provided by transport protocols is proposed. This middleware solution is based on the interruption of transport level connections by proxies located on network domain borders. A flow model linking a language dedicated to multimedia flows specification with protocol mechanisms for flows recognition is proposed to formalise the quality of service. Finally, this thesis contributes to develop mechanisms for dynamic transport protocol deployment.

Indexation multimédia par dictionnaires visuels en environnement décentralisé. Une approche par protocoles Gossip

RÉSUMÉ. Pour permettre la recherche par le contenu de documents multimédia repartis sur de larges réseaux, nous proposons un système d’indexation basé sur l’apprentissage décentralisé et asynchrone de dictionnaires visuels. Nous proposons un algorithme décentralisé pour le calcul des dictionnaires basé sur un protocole d’agrégation Gossip, qui produit un dictionnaire local performant en chaque ...

Un système d'intégration des métadonnées dédiées au multimédia

Avec l’explosion du web sémantique et multimédia et le besoin de disposer de connaissances directement interprétables par les machines, plusieurs standards de descriptions des métadonnées sont apparus ces dernières décennies (MPEG-7, MPEG-21, TV-Anytime, etc.). Ils permettent de décrire un large éventail d’entités : des contenus multimédia disponibles sur le Web (image, vidéo, audio, etc.), des...

WiFly: experimenting with Wireless Sensor Networks and Virtual coordinates

Experimentation is important when designing communication protocols for Wireless Sensor Networks. Lower-layers have a major impact on upper-layer performance, and the complexity of the phenomena can not be entirely captured by analysis or simulation. In this report, we go through the complete process, from designing an energy-efficient selforganizing communication architecture (MAC, routing and...
