Quality of Experience (QoE) modeling is crucial for optimizing video streaming services to capture the complex relationships between different features and user experience. We propose a novel approach to QoE modeling in video streaming…

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…

Short video streaming has become a dominant paradigm in digital media, characterized by rapid swiping interactions and diverse media content. A key technical challenge is designing an effective preloading strategy that dynamically selects…

HTTP adaptive streaming (HAS) is quickly becoming the dominant video delivery technique for adaptive streaming over the Internet. Still considered as its primary challenges are determining the optimal rate adaptation and improving both the…

Consumers of short videos on Internet can have a bad Quality of Experience QoE due to the long distance between the consumers and the servers that hosting the videos. We propose an optimization of the file allocation in telecommunication…

The surge in popularity of short-form video content, particularly through platforms like TikTok and Instagram, has led to an exponential increase in data traffic, presenting significant challenges in network resource management. Traditional…

In this work, a new approach to the definition of the quality of experience is presented. By considering the quality of service as a baseline, that portion of the QoE that can be inferred from the QoS is excluded, and then the rest of the…

End-to-end (E2E) delay is critical for interactive video streaming (IVS) experiences, but remains unsatisfactory for its long-tail distribution caused by periodic large keyframes. Conventional optimization strategies, such as jitter buffer,…

Over the last few years, 360{\deg} video traffic on the network has grown significantly. A key challenge of 360{\deg} video playback is ensuring a high quality of experience (QoE) with limited network bandwidth. Currently, most studies…

Streaming platforms, like Netflix and YouTube, strive to offer high streaming quality (SQ), in terms of bitrate, delays, etc., to their users. Meanwhile, a significant share of content consumption of these platforms is heavily influenced by…

Streaming Continual Learning (CL) typically converts a continuous stream into a sequence of discrete tasks through temporal partitioning. We argue that this temporal taskification step is not a neutral preprocessing choice, but a structural…

WiMAX (Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access) technology has emerged in response to the increasing demand for multimedia services in the internet broadband networks. WiMAX standard has defined five different scheduling services to…

The increasing demand for video streaming services with high Quality of Experience (QoE) has prompted a lot of research on client-side adaptation logic approaches. However, most algorithms use the client's previous download experience and…

Recent advances in quality adaptation algorithms leave adaptive bitrate (ABR) streaming architectures at a crossroads: When determining the sustainable video quality one may either rely on the information gathered at the client vantage…
