The transmission of real-time streams over best effort networks has been an interesting
research area for over a decade. An important objective of the research community has …

A new inter-client synchronization framework for one-to-many (ie, multicast) media
streaming is proposed employing a server-client coordinated adaptive playout control. The …

Client-side data buffering is a common technique to deal with media playout interruptions of
streaming video caused by network jitters and packet losses of best-effort networks …

Most streaming rate selection and buffer optimization algorithms are developed for wired
networks and can perform poorly over wireless networks. Wireless MAC layer behavior …

Traditionally, subjective tests are conducted to obtain the Mean Opinion Score (MOS) or
Quality of Experience (QoE) of a video streaming service. However, subjective tests are time …

Video traffic over the Internet becomes increasingly popular and is expected to comprise the
largest proportion of the traffic carried by wired and wireless networks. On the other hand …

Video streaming is one of the killer applications for cellular communications. The MPEG-4
