ABSTRACT
Dynamic Streaming over HTTP is the main standard used for online video streaming, service that has about 1.1 billion subscribers around the world. That implies billions of streaming connections between video servers and client displays. These devices involved in the streaming connection use an Ethernet Interface Card that consumes energy. In order to reduce the energy consumption, the IEEE 802.3az Energy Efficient Ethernet has been proposed. In this study, the ethernet traffic pattern when transmitting online video content is characterized in order to analyze the efficiency of the IEEE 802.3az standard under video streaming scenarios, and to verify the convenience of activating this energy saving alternative at the network interface of billions of client devices.

DASH Streaming traffic influence over energy efficient ethernet to improve energy savings
AbstractDynamic Streaming over HTTP (DASH) is the main standard used in online video streaming services, given that more than 1.2 billion pay subscribers around the world use this standard. This fact entails billions of streaming connections ...
Using coordinated transmission with energy efficient ethernet
NETWORKING'11: Proceedings of the 10th international IFIP TC 6 conference on Networking - Volume Part IIEEE 802.3az Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) supports link active and sleep (idle) modes as a means of reducing the energy consumption of lightly utilized Ethernet links. A link wakes-up when an interface has packets to send and returns to idle when ...
