Abstract

In this paper, an adaptive algorithm is proposed in streaming MPEG-4 contents with fluctuating resource amount such as throughput of network conditions. MPEG-4 is the international standard for audiovisual presentation which is composed of object based media streams. The proposed technique provides the media stream corresponding an object with multiple media streams with different qualities and bit rate in order to support object based scalability to the MPEG-4 content. In addition, making the object streams adaptable, a feasible stream set selected from the multiple streams for transmission with optimal quality in the form of the current status.
