Due to missing IP multicast support on an Internet scale, over-the-top media streams are delivered with the help of overlays as used by content delivery networks and their peer-to-peer (P2P) extensions. In this context, mesh/pull-based…

Application layer multicast (ALM) also called Overlay Multicast, is an attractive alternative solution to most of the problems associated with IP multicast. In ALM, multicast-related functionalities are moved to end-hosts. Application layer…

Over the last decade, internet has seen an exponential increase in its growth.With more and more people using it, efficient data delivery over the internet has become a key issue. Peer-to-peer (P2P)/seed sharing based networks have several…

Real-time Big Data architectures evolved into specialized layers for handling data streams' ingestion, storage, and processing over the past decade. Layered streaming architectures integrate pull-based read and push-based write RPC…

In today's world, social networking is an important (power full) medium of mass communication. People of almost all classes have been interacting with each other and sharing their views, moments, and ideas by using enormous user-friendly…

In recent years, research efforts tried to exploit peer-to-peer (P2P) systems in order to provide Live Streaming (LS) and Video-on-Demand (VoD) services. Most of these research efforts focus on the development of distributed P2P block…

With high scalability, high video streaming quality, and low bandwidth requirement, peer-to-peer (P2P) systems have become a popular way to exchange files and deliver multimedia content over the internet. However, current P2P systems are…

P2P overlays provide a framework for building distributed applications consisting of few to many resources with features including self-configuration, scalability, and resilience to node failures. Such systems have been successfully adopted…

We propose a streaming diarization method based on an end-to-end neural diarization (EEND) model, which handles flexible numbers of speakers and overlapping speech. In our previous study, the speaker-tracing buffer (STB) mechanism was…

Innovative shared mobility services provide on-demand flexible mobility options and have the potential to alleviate traffic congestion. These attractive services are challenging from different perspectives. One major challenge in such…

Nowadays, peer-to-peer (P2P) streaming systems have become a popular way to deliver multimedia content over the internet due to their low bandwidth requirement, high video streaming quality, and flexibility. However, P2P streaming systems…

Streaming segmented videos over the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) is an increasingly popular approach in both live and video-on-demand (VoD) applications. However, designing a scalable and adaptable framework that reduces servers…

The proprietary nature of existing Content Delivery Networks (CDNs) means they are closed and do not naturally cooperate. A CDN is expected to provide high performance Internet content delivery through global coverage, which might be an…

The paper investigates theoretical issues in applying the universal swarming technique to efficient content distribution. In a swarming session, a file is distributed to all the receivers by having all the nodes in the session exchange file…

Recently, non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) has been proposed to achieve higher spectral efficiency over conventional orthogonal multiple access. Although it has the potential to meet increasing demands of video services, it is still…

Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP (DASH) is a recently proposed standard that offers different versions of the same media content to adapt the delivery process over the Internet to dynamic bandwidth fluctuations and different user device…

The adaptation of the BitTorrent protocol to multimedia on-demand streaming systems essentially lies on the modification of its two core algorithms, namely the piece and the peer selection policies, respectively. Much more attention has…

We present a distributed data structure, which we call the rainbow skip graph. To our knowledge, this is the first peer-to-peer data structure that simultaneously achieves high fault tolerance, constant-sized nodes, and fast update and…

Routing is a challenge to Wireless Multimedia Sensor Networks (WMSNs) for supporting multimedia applications due to nodes' energy constraints and computational capabilities, and the ways sensor nodes obtain forwarding information. In this…

A broadcast mode may augment peer-to-peer overlay networks with an efficient, scalable data replication function, but may also give rise to a virtual link layer in VPN-type solutions. We introduce a simple broadcasting mechanism that…
