This paper describes a streaming architecture simulation model above Network Simulator 2 (NS2) which allows to define specific transport properties. Multimedia contents are spec...
SP-frame is a new picture type supported by H.264. The traditional usage of SP-frames is for switching between different compressed bit-streams. In this paper, we proposed and eva...
Peer-to-peer (P2P) multicast is a scalable solution adopted by many video streaming systems. However, a prevalence of P2P applications has caused heavy traffic on the Internet. W...
Most of the literature on peer-to-peer (P2P) live streaming focuses on how to provide best-effort streaming quality by efficiently using the system bandwidth; however, there is n...
The paper targets to demonstrate through a set of experimental studies that the common operation of IP DiffServ and DVB Bandwidth Management (BM) mechanisms can offer quality gains...
