Adaptive Hierarchical Clustering Algorithm (AHCA) maps a flat topology to a hierarchical tree though output trees are incontrollable and are not suitable for multimedia. PruneRel...
While the IP unicast service has proven successful, extending end-to-end adaptation to multicast has been a difficult problem. Unlike the unicast case, multicast protocols must su...
1 In this paper, we introduce and evaluate a low complexity macroblock partition mode decision algorithm for interframe prediction in MPEG-2 to H.264 transcoder. The proposed tools...
—We consider the general scenario where content hosted by the server comprises streams and each peer can subscribe one or more streams. Multiple multicast trees are built to deli...
