Abstract

The network conditions experienced by end-users of a cellular network can greatly vary over time because of changing coverage, due to the end-user's mobility, interference, or because of highly loaded cells at peak hours. Adaptive BitRate (ABR) streaming can compensate for some of these difficult network conditions by having the video player requesting lower video bitrates. However, in the best case, this comes at the price of lower video quality and, at worst, may still lead to video freezes and rebuffering.

VideoNOC: assessing video QoE for network operators using passive measurements
MMSys '18: Proceedings of the 9th ACM Multimedia Systems Conference

Video streaming traffic is rapidly growing in mobile networks. Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) are expected to keep up with this growing demand, while maintaining a high video Quality of Experience (QoE). This makes it critical for MNOs to have a solid ...
CDN and SDN Support and Player Interaction for HTTP Adaptive Video Streaming
MMSys '21: Proceedings of the 12th ACM Multimedia Systems Conference

Video streaming has become one of the most prevailing, bandwidth-hungry, and latency-sensitive Internet applications. HTTP Adaptive Streaming (HAS) has become the dominant video delivery mechanism over the Internet. Lack of coordination among the ...
