Networked games are susceptible to delays which degrade the playing experience. A version of Pong was developed to test how delay and delay visualization affect gamers’ mental effort, enjoyment and task performance. A predictor display shadowing the paddle was contrasted experimentally to no visualization at two levels of delay. The experiment showed that higher levels of delay increase the men...

AbstructABR service relies on a feedback from the network, therefore i t strongly suffers from the long propagation delays characterizing satellite networks. In fact, i t has been shown that the high delay, in combination with high bandwidth, can deceive ABR sources and make them falsely believe that a break occurred somewhere in the path. Since ABR sources respond to breaks by reducing their c...
