Optimizing network throughput in real-world dynamic systems is critical, especially for diverse and delay-sensitive multimedia data types such as VoIP and video streaming. Traditional routing protocols, which rely on static metrics and…
In this paper, we investigate the problem of power control for streaming variable-bit-rate (VBR) videos in a device-to-device (D2D) wireless network. A VBR video traffic model that considers video frame sizes and playout buffers at the…
Measuring energy consumption is a challenging task faced by developers when building mobile apps. This paper presents EMaaS: a system that provides reliable energy measurements for mobile applications, without requiring a complex setup. It…
Multimedia streaming accounts for the majority of traffic in today's internet. Mechanisms like adaptive bitrate streaming control the bitrate of a stream based on the estimated bandwidth, ideally resulting in smooth playback and a good…
Video conferencing platforms have been appropriated during the COVID-19 pandemic for different purposes, including classroom teaching. However, the platforms are not designed for many of these objectives. When users, like educationists,…
We consider the optimal design of a scheduling policy for adaptive video streaming in a wireless network formed by several users and helpers. A feature of such networks is that any user is typically in the range of multiple helpers. Hence,…
The reduction of the energy consumptions of a Telecommunication Power System represents one of the critical factors of the telecommunication technologies, both to allow a sizeable saving of economic resources and to realize "sustainable"…
The demand for mobile multimedia streaming services has been steadily growing in recent years. Mobile multimedia broadcasting addresses the shortage of radio resources but introduces a network error recovery problem. Retransmitting…
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…
We consider extensions and improvements on our previous work on dynamic adaptive video streaming in a multi-cell multiuser ``small cell'' wireless network. Previously, we treated the case of single-antenna base stations and, starting from a…
Currently, tens of millions of devices around the world communicate with/ each other via cellular networks. In this paper, we study the stability of network content delivery protocols to the effects of network interference. To conduct the…
Context. Many Internet content platforms, such as Spotify and YouTube, provide their services via both native and Web apps. Even though those apps provide similar features to the end user, using their native version or Web counterpart might…
Zoomable video streaming refers to a new class of interactive video applications, where users can zoom into a video stream to view a selected region of interest in higher resolutions and pan around to move the region of interest. The zoom…
Adaptive HTTP streaming with centralized consideration of multiple streams has gained increasing interest. It poses a special challenge that the interests of both content provider and network operator need to be deliberately balanced. More…
Self-potential signals can be generated by different sources and can be decomposed in various contributions. Streming potential is the contribution due to the water flux in the subsurface and is of particular interest in hydrogeophysics and…
Wireless networks are envisaged to be one of the most important technologies to provide cost-efficient content delivery, including for video applications. They will allow thousands of thousands of fixed and mobile users to access, produce,…
Streaming video is becoming the predominant type of traffic over the Internet with reports forecasting the video content to account for 80% of all traffic by 2019. With significant investment on Internet backbone, the main bottleneck…
Mobile quality of experience and user satisfaction are growing research topics. However, the relationship between a user's satisfaction with network quality and the networks real performance in the field remains unexplored. This paper is…
The exponential growth of multimedia streaming services over the Internet emphasizes the increasing significance of ensuring a seamless and high-quality streaming experience for users. Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP (DASH) has emerged…
Unlike traditional file transfer where only total delay matters, streaming applications impose delay constraints on each packet and require them to be in order. To achieve fast in-order packet decoding, we have to compromise on the…
