Overlay networks have become popular in recent times for content distribution and end-system multicasting of media streams. In the latter case, the motivation is based on the lack...
Media data are VBR in nature due to the coding and compression technologies applied. As VBR streams are complicated for network management, different approaches were proposed to s...
We address the problem of distributed path selection and rate allocation for media streaming in overlay networks. Under the assumption that each node has only a local view of the ...
We consider diversity for media streaming in a rate-distortion optimization framework. A sender-driven transmission scenario is investigated, where diversity is achieved by using ...
This paper studies the streaming of packetized media from multiple servers to a client over a lossy network. In particular, we propose a client-driven rate-distortion optimal pack...
