User’s perceived Quality of Service or Quality of experience (QoE) is likely to be the major determining factor in the success of new multimedia applications over wireless/mobile networks. The primary aim of this paper is to present an adaptation scheme that is QoE-driven for optimizing content provisioning and network resource utilization for video applications over wireless networks. The prop...

Evaluation of Quality of Experience (QoE) for web browsing is a challenging topic as it involves many different factors related to human as well as technical issues. To understand such a large number of human and technical metrics is both difficult and tricky. Two main objectives of the research presented in this paper are to propose and develop a new QoE assessment approach based on a comprehe...

The convergence of real-time multimedia applications, the increasing coverage of heterogeneous wireless networks and the ever-growing popularity of mobile devices are leading to an era of mobile humancentric multimedia services. In this scenario, heterogeneous communications will co-exist and ensure that the end-user is always best connected. The rigorous networking demands of wireless multimed...

This paper proposes QoE-LAOS, a Quality of Experience-oriented adaptive authoring model that enables performance-aware adaptation. It extends the existing LAOS authoring model in order to consider display and delivery performance issues. QoE-LAOS involves the addition of three new QoE sublayers: QoE Content Features sublayer, QoE Characteristics sublayer and QoE Rules sublayer. These proposed Q...

Recent years have observed a tremendous shift from the technology-centric assessment to the user-centric assessment of network services. Obviously, a sustainable network management approach cares about the user demands and expectations. Consequently, the measurement and modeling of Quality of Experience (QoE) attracted many contributions from researchers and practitioners. Generally, QoE is ass...

Despite the steady increase in home broadband speeds, simple tasks such as watching a video streamed over the Internet or having a Skype call can still be a frustrating experience. Overloaded servers, network congestion, and poor home WiFi quality are just a few of the potential root causes that can hamper users’ Internet Quality of Experience (QoE) [1]. Without the knowledge of where the probl...

Quality of Experience (QoE) is the subjective judgment of the satisfaction an end user perceives from an application running over a given network topology and configuration. The information provided by end users regarding their QoE preferences, experience and feedback is invaluable in providing a service that meets with their mobile activity needs within various access networks. The PERIMETER p...

This paper presents a new framework of Quality of Experience (QoE) in mobile network. The user acceptance of a mobile application depends on the application’s perceived QoE. Currently, there is no comprehensive framework which integrates QoE and Quality of Service (QoS). The components of framework consist of the network mobility users, traffic classification matrixes and QoE key metric. The pe...

Over the last decade, Quality of Experience (QoE) has become a new, central paradigm for understanding the quality of networks and services. In particular, the concept has attracted the interest of communication network and service providers, since being able to guarantee good QoE to customers provides an opportunity for differentiation. In this paper we investigate the potential as well as the...
