Layered coding is often proposed as a solution for ratebased congestion control of video transmission in heterogeneous environments. The problem addressed more specifically here i...
To accommodate heterogeneous transmission conditions in a streaming scenario several multi-rate multicast solutions have been proposed, based on simulcasting or hierarchical layer...
Active networks allow code to be loaded dynamically into network nodes at run-time. This code can perform tasks specific to a stream of packets or even a single packet. In this pa...

State of the art, real-time, rate-adaptive, multimedia applications adjust their transmission rate to match the available network capacity. Unfortunately, this source-based rate-a...
— A streaming system based on the Scalable Video Coding (SVC) extension of H.264/AVC is shown. SVC allows for data rate adaptation without re-encoding just by dropping packets of...
