Multi-criteria Optimization for Scalable Bitstreams

Abstract

Since a few years, the heterogeneity of devices accessing multimedia is increasing. This introduces new problems for multimedia applications, that will probably be solved by the use of scalable or layered coding schemes. The content negotiation process of automatically selecting the best available version for a specific situation is complicated because video quality is composed of different independent aspects. This paper describes how we can apply the principles of multi-criteria optimization to determine the set of optimal solutions in a content negotiation process. It also introduces a basic formal model for describing scalable bitstreams.
