Adaptive Playout For Low Latency Video Streaming

by Eckehard Steinbach, Niko Färber, et al. , 2001
"... Network variations in video streaming require to prebuffer sufficient data at the client prior to playout. This receiver buffer prevents the display process from starvation in case of network congestion. Prebuffering, however, is also responsible for the major part of the delay between requesting a ..."

Low Latency and Cheat-proof Event Ordering for Peer-to-Peer Games

by Chris Gauthierdickey, Virginia Lo, James Marr - In NOSSDAV ’04: Proceedings of the 14th ACM International Workshop on Network and Operating Systems Support for Digital Audio and Video , 2004
"... We are developing a distributed architecture for massively-multiplayer games. In this paper, we focus on designing a low-latency event ordering protocol, called NEO, for this architecture. Previous event ordering protocols prevent sev-eral types of cheats at the expense of operating at the la-tency ..."

of the slowest player. We broaden the definition of cheating to include four common protocol level cheats and demonstrate how NEO prevents these cheats. At the same time, NEO has a playout latency independent of network conditions and adapts to network congestion to optimize performance.

Adaptive Playout For Real-Time Media Streaming

by Mark Kalman, Eckehard Steinbach, Bernd Girod - in IEEE International Conference on Image Processing (ICIP , 2002
"... When media is streamed over best-effort networks, a buffer at the client protects against playout interruptions due to variations in the data arrival rate. While the amount of protection offered grows with the size of the client's buffer, so does the latency that is introduced. In this paper we ..."

Adaptive Media Playout for Low Delay Video Streaming over Error-Prone Channels

by Mark Kalman, Eckehard Steinbach, Member Ieee, Bernd Girod, Fellow Ieee - IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems for Video Technology , 2004
"... Video streaming over wireless networks requires the prebu#ering of su#cient data at the client prior to playout in order to combat adverse channel conditions. A large client bu#er prevents the display process from starving in case of temporarily high loss rates, but also introduces significant laten ..."

In this paper we show how adaptive media playout (AMP) can be employed to reduce the delay introduced by the client bu#er while preserving the same resilience against bu#er underflow as in non-adaptive media playout. For adaptive media playout we adjust the playout speed of the media packets

R-D Optimized Media Streaming Enhanced With Adaptive Media Playout
