Correlation-Aware Multimedia Content Distribution in Overlay Networks

چکیده
We address the question: What is the best way to construct a mesh overlay topology for multimedia content distribution, such that the highest streaming rate can be achieved? We model overlay capacity correlations as linear capacity constraints (LCC) and propose a distributed algorithm that constructs an overlay mesh which incorporates heuristically inferred linear capacity constraints. Our simulations results confirm the accuracy of representing overlays using our LCC model and show the LCC-overlay achieving substantial improvement in achievable flow rate.

A framework for programmable overlay multimedia networks
We present an evolutionary framework for provisioning enhanced network-based multimedia distribution services to a diverse set of receivers. The framework addresses various degrees of heterogeneity among “distribution paths” from content sources to receivers, where a distribution path carries information from a content-aware multicast distribution tree from a source to one or more receivers. Th...

Multimedia services such video-on-demand service to large number of clients require stable network bandwidth provision and short network delay. In order to achieve these goals, the object replication in overlay P2P networks in a good candidate solution for both service providers and customers. However, the characteristics of peers are different from traditional content distribution infrastructu...
متن کاملPeerLive – Multimedia Distribution using Overlay Networks
PeerLive aims to create an overlay network of peers used to broadcast television channels or other multimedia content. PeerLive differentiate from similar projects for some key-features like swarming, QoS overlay, incentives and virtual currency and the ability in uploading early fragments of the content even before being viewed. The attention is focused on aspects such as buffer size, query me...
متن کاملSearching and Streaming of Multimedia Content in P2p Overlay Network
A significant part of the Internet traffic is generated by peer-to-peer (P2P) applications. P2P used traditionally for file-sharing, and more recently for real-time communications and live media streaming. With little knowledge of the underlying network topology such applications discover a route to each other through an overlay network. P2P could be a promising start for enabling large-scale s...
