This paper addresses the problem of streaming packetized media over a lossy packet
network in a rate-distortion optimized way. We show that although the data units in a media …

The diversity for media streaming in a rate-distortion optimization framework was
considered. A sender-driven transmission scenario was also investigated. Diversity was …

We consider the problem of distributed packet selection and scheduling for multiple video
streams sharing a communication channel. An optimization framework is proposed, which …

This paper presents a general design strategy for streaming media applications in best effort
computing and networking environments. Our target application is video on demand using …

Combining the concepts of caching and transmission control protocol (TCP)-friendly
streaming of layer-encoded video bears the problem that those videos might not be cached …

Previous scalable on-demand streaming protocols do not allow clients to recover from
packet loss. This paper develops new protocols that:(1) have a tunably short latency for the …

In this work we present an end-to-end optimized video streaming system comprising of
synergistic interaction between a source packetization strategy and an efficient and …

In this paper, we present a family of new algorithms for rate-fidelity optimal packetization of
scalable source bit streams with uneven error protection. In the most general setting where …

Efficient bit stream adaptation and resilience to packet losses are two critical requirements in
scalable video coding for transmission over packet-lossy networks. Various scalable layers …

Despite the well‐known challenges of variations in throughput, delay, and packet loss over
the Internet, video streaming has experienced phenomenal growth, owing to the extensive …
