The key challenge in admission control in wireless networks is to strike an optimal trade-off between the blocking probability for new requests while minimizing the dropping probability of ongoing requests. We consider two approaches for…

We consider Markovian many-server systems with admission control operating in a QED regime, where the relative utilization approaches unity while the number of servers grows large, providing natural Economies-of-Scale. In order to determine…

An interactive session of video-on-demand (VOD) streaming procedure deserves smooth data transportation for the viewer, irrespective of their geographic location. To access the required video, bandwidth management during the video objects…

The demand for efficient multi-rate encoding techniques has surged with the increasing prevalence of ultra-high-definition (UHD) video content, particularly in adaptive streaming scenarios where a single video must be encoded at multiple…

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…

Being an integral part of the network traffic, nowadays it's vital to design robust mechanisms to provide QoS for multimedia applications. The main goal of this paper is to provide an efficient solution to support content-aware video…

Advanced video classification systems decode video frames to derive the necessary texture and motion representations for ingestion and analysis by spatio-temporal deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs). However, when considering visual…

Content Delivery Networks (CDNs) are designed to enhance network performance and protect against web attack traffic for their hosting websites. And the HTTP compression request mechanism primarily aims to reduce unnecessary network…

Recently, the growing demand for rich multimedia content such as Video on Demand (VoD) has made the data transmission from content delivery networks (CDN) to end-users quite challenging. Edge networks have been proposed as an extension to…

In this paper, we study the challenging problem of categorizing videos according to high-level semantics such as the existence of a particular human action or a complex event. Although extensive efforts have been devoted in recent years,…

In this paper we give network coding algorithms for multi-layered video streaming. The problem is motivated by video broadcasting in a communication network to users with varying demands. We give a polynomial time algorithm for deciding…

Multi-access Edge Computing (MEC) is a type of network architecture that provides cloud computing capabilities at the edge of the network. We consider the use case of video surveillance for an university campus running on a 5G-MEC…

Content Delivery Networks (CDN) are witnessing the outburst of video streaming (e.g., personal live streaming or Video-on-Demand) where the video content, produced or accessed by mobile phones, must be quickly transferred from a point to…

In this paper, we address the problem of controlling a system over an unreliable connection that is affected by time-varying delays and randomly occurring packet losses. A novel sequence-based approach is proposed that extends a given…

The recursive intra-frame block partitioning decision process, a crucial component of the next-generation video coding standards, exerts significant influence over the encoding time. In this paper, we propose an encoder-decoder neural…

Video on Demand system over the wireless mobile network is a system that provides video services to mobile clients.The main problem with these systems is the high service delay where the mobile clients have to wait to view their favorite…

Edge caching can significantly improve the 5G networks' performance both in terms of delay and backhaul traffic. We use a reinforcement learning-based (RL-based) caching technique that can adapt to time-location-dependent popularity…

We present a multi-channel P2P Video-on-Demand (VoD) system using "plug-and-play" helpers. Helpers are heterogenous "micro-servers" with limited storage, bandwidth and number of users they can serve simultaneously. Our proposed system has…

There is an increasing demand for P2P streaming in particular for layered video. In this category of applications, the stream is composed of hierarchically encoded sub-streams layers namely the base layer and enhancements layers. We…

Content Delivery Networks (CDNs) deliver content (e.g. Web pages, videos) to geographically distributed end-users over the Internet. Some contents do sometimes attract the attention of a large group of end-users. This often leads to flash…
