Adaptive Multimedia Transmission over the Internet

چکیده
The Internet is a heterogeneous network environment and the network resources that are available to multimedia applications can be modified very quickly. Multimedia applications must have the capability to adapt their operation to network changes. In order to add adaptation characteristics to multimedia applications, we can use techniques both at the network and application layers. Adaptive multimedia transmission techniques have the capability to transmit multimedia data over heterogeneous networks and adapt media transmission to network changes. In order to provide adaptive multimedia transmission, mechanisms to monitor the network conditions and mechanisms to adapt the transmission of the data to the network changes must be implemented. This chapter concentrates on the architecture and design issues of adaptive multimedia techniques that provide the capability to transmit multimedia data over heterogeneous networks and adapt the transmission of the multimedia data to the network changes.

An adaptive redundancy control method for erasure-code-based real-time data transmission over the Internet
We propose an adaptive redundancy control method for erasure-code-based real-time data transmission over the Internet. The loss rate is an important quality of service (QoS) parameter for real-time data transmission. However, real-time data transmission over best-effort networks, such as the Internet, suffers from a frequent packet loss due to traffic congestion. Erasure-code-based loss recover...

The Internet offers a best-effort service over public networks which do not guarantee privacy. Because of this the provision of secure real time audio applications has received increasing interest and was an active research area in last years. We propose an adaptive packet audio control mechanism, originally designed for controlling and adapting the audio applications to the network conditions,...

متن کاملMultimedia transmission with adaptive QoS based on real-time protocols
In this paper, we describe a mechanism for adaptive transmission of multimedia data, which is based on real-time protocols. The proposed mechanism can be used for unicast or multicast transmission of multimedia data over heterogeneous networks, like the Internet, and has the capability to adapt the transmission of the multimedia data to network changes. In addition, the implemented mechanism us...
