In this paper a survey of the research effort invested in the analysis of multicasting over
wireless access networks from the late nineties onwards is presented. The analysis is …

Due to the explosive growth of the Internet and increasing demand for multimedia
information on the Web, streaming video over the Internet has received tremendous …

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 …

In this paper, we examine the performance of specific implementations of multiple
description coding and of layered coding for video streaming over error-prone packet …

With the explosive growth of video applications over the Internet, many approaches have
been proposed to stream video effectively over packet switched, best-effort networks. We …

Fountain codes were introduced as an efficient and universal forward error correction (FEC)
solution for data multicast over lossy packet networks. They have recently been proposed for …

Multiple description codes address the problem of unreliable channels by means of
independent descriptions, while layered codes address the problems of heterogeneous …

The problem of application-layer error control for real-time video transmission over packet
lossy networks is commonly addressed via joint source-channel coding (JSCC), where …

This article focuses on FEC for scalable image coders. For various channel models, we
survey recent progress made in system design and discuss efficient source-channel bit …

The compression or coding of a signal (eg, speech, text, image, video) has been a topic of
great interest for a number of years. Numerous results and successful compression …
