Adaptive bitrate (ABR) streaming is the de facto solution for achieving smooth viewing experiences under unstable network conditions. However, most of the existing rate adaptation approaches for ABR are content-agnostic, without considering…
Admission control is a key component in multimedia servers, which will allow the resources to be used by the client only when they are available. A problem faced by numerous content serving machines is overload, when there are too many…
The Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) network is crucial due to its ability to efficiently transmit data, provide reliable connections, and support various service classes with specific Quality of Service (QoS) requirements. In this paper,…
Future Internet usage will be dominated by the consumption of a rich variety of online multimedia services accessed from an exponentially growing number of multimedia capable mobile devices. As such, future Internet designs will be…
In this paper, we study the problem of distributed transmission control and video streaming optimization for UAVs operating in unlicensed spectrum bands. We develop a rigorous cross-layer analysis framework that jointly considers three…
This paper studies the uplink and downlink power allocation for interactive augmented reality (AR) services, where the live video captured by an AR device is uploaded to the network edge, and then the augmented video is subsequently…
Network Utility Maximization (NUM) studies the problems of allocating traffic rates to network users in order to maximize the users' total utility subject to network resource constraints. In this paper, we propose a new NUM framework,…
Vehicular Ad Hoc Network (VANET) is a type of mobile ad hoc network (MANET) that facilitates communication among vehicles. VANET provides inter-vehicular communications to serve for the application like road traffic safety and traffic…
The basic idea behind an active queue management (AQM) is to sense the congestion level within the network and inform the packet sources about, so that they reduce their sending rate. In literature a lot off mechanisms of AQM are studied.…
Congestion control is essential for the stability of the Internet and the corresponding algorithms are commonly evaluated for interoperability based on flow-rate fairness. In contrast, video conferencing software such as Zoom uses custom…
This paper studies the problem of serving multiple live video streams to several different clients from a single access point over unreliable wireless links, which is expected to be major a consumer of future wireless capacity. This problem…
A novel interference management approach is proposed for modern communication scenarios, where multiple applications and networks coexist on the same channel resource. The leading principle behind the proposed approach is that the…
This paper is concerned with the issue of improving video subscribers' quality of experience (QoE) by deploying a multi-unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) network. Different from existing works, we characterize subscribers' QoE by video…
This paper aims to reduce the prebuffering requirements, while maintaining continuity, for video streaming. Current approaches do this by making use of adaptive media playout (AMP) to reduce the playout rate. However, this introduces…
Code-division multiple-access (CDMA) has the potential to support traffic sources with a wide range of quality of service (QoS) requirements. The traffic carrying capacity of CDMA channels under QoS constraints (such as delay guarantee) is,…
Broadcasting systems have to deal with channel variability in order to offer the best spectral efficiency to the receivers. However, the transmission parameters that maximise the spectral efficiency generally leads to a large link…
The predominant use of wireless access networks is for media streaming applications, which are only gaining popularity as ever more devices become available for this purpose. However, current access networks treat all packets identically,…
Multi-access edge computing (MEC) enables placing video content at the edge of the network aiming to improve the quality of experience (QoE) of the mobile clients. Video content caching at edge servers also reduces traffic in the backhaul…
User dissatisfaction due to buffering pauses during streaming is a significant cost to the system, which we model as a non-decreasing function of the frequency of buffering pause. Minimization of total user dissatisfaction in a…
Recently, Dynamic Time Division Duplex (TDD) has been proposed to handle the asymmetry of traffic demand between DownLink (DL) and UpLink (UL) in Heterogeneous Networks (HetNets). However, for mixed traffic consisting of best effort traffic…
