The QoS(Quality of Service) of VoD(Video on Demand) systems can be improved by reducing the faults that the stream service request from clients is rejected by the VoD server or lost during the service. This paper proposes a model of Dynamic Workload Balancer that can adjust the workload dynamically through the periodical monitoring of the VoD system, and so increase the throughput. The proposed model runs independently from the VoD system by adopting the agent concept. The model comprises the agency part interfacing the VoD system and the intelligence part reasoning or teaming the facts required for the adjustment of workload. An experiment of implementing a simulator was conducted to see whether or not application of the proposed model to VoD system is effective. As a result of the experiment, it was found that the throughput was relatively increased when the proposed model was applied compared to existing means.

This paper introduces an Advanced Terrestrial DMB (AT-DMB) system which provides higher efficiency of transmission and better quality of service than conventional T-DMB system. In AT-DMB, a hierarchical modulation method is applied to transmit more data while maintaining backward compatibility to conventional T-DMB receivers. This method can provide not only high quality video service but also lots of broadcasting channels. In this paper, the performance of the hierarchical modulation in AT-DMB system is analyzed with computer simulation in several environments compared with the performance of T-DMB system.

Since the wireless sensor networks become pervasive, various application-specific requirement have been emerged and suggested. Among them, reliability and real-time service are ones of big research challenges since sensed information is useless if a packet is lost and delivered later than deadline. Even though many research works have been proposed, they was designed to meet one of both requirements. To solve above problem, in this paper, we propose how to extend current protocol to meet two requirements together. More detailed, Mint Route protocol is revised to meet specific real-time requirement, (m,k)-firm stream in wireless sensor networks. Since the main operations in MintRoute are very similar to definition of (m,k)-firm stream, extension is achieved by modifying some parts of procedure. Finally, the simulation results are given and analyzed to validate the its suitability for reliable and real-time requirement.

In this paper, we propose a transport layer mobility support protocol for multimedia streaming services in mobile/wireless environments by extending PR-SCTP to support mobility. We named the proposed scheme to be uPR-mSCTP. The rules related to provide unordered and unreliable data transfer, as well as an approach to minimize handover latency we proposed. Through the simulation results, it is shown that, since uPR-mSCTP reduces transmission rates during handover, not only it reduces the waste of network resources, but it also has the packet loss rate similar to FMIPv6, which is a lot smaller than UDP over MIPv6 or HMIPv6 It also incurs smaller control packet overhead compared to the network layer mobility support approaches.

This paper presents distributive web-caching technique on the Head-End-Network (HNET) to solve excessive load of multimedia sever and inefficient use of network resources, The proposed web-caching is not concentration of load for a specific Head-End-Node(HEN), and it has advantage that there is no copy of a specific item on distributive HENs. This technique distributively stores on HENs partial streams of requested videos from clients connected to HENs and the order of store streams follows the order of request of identical video items from HENs. Thus, storing streams on each HEN that requests sevice are different. When a client requests the cached video on some HENs, the HEN that connects him receives streams in the order of store from HENs which stored them and it transmits them to him. These procedures are performed under the control of SA. This technique uses cache replacement algorithm that the combination of LFU, LRU and the last remove for the first stream of videos In order to reduce end-to-end delay.

The Terrestrial Digital Multimedia Broadcasting (T-DMB) system supplies high quality audio comparable with VCD in 7 inch display and high quality audio comparable CD at the mobile reception environment T-DMB will launch commercial service at the middle of 2005. However the bandwidth for audio data and the number of channels are restricted to 128 kbps and 2 respectively in the current T-DMB standard because of the limitation of available bandwidth for multimedia data. This Paper Proposes a novel media processor structure for providing multi-channel audio contents oyer T-DMB system allowing backward compatibility with the legacy T-DMB receiver. Furthermore. we also Propose an adaptive receiver structure to supply optimal audio contents on various speaker configuration in T-DMB receiver. To provide multi-channel audio contents allowing backward comaptilbity with the legacy T-DMB receiver, the additional data for multi-channel audio are defined as a dependent stream of main audio stream. The OD strucure for control an additional multi-channel audio elementary stream is proposed without changing the BIFS of the legacy T-DMB system.

With the recent development of the ubiquitous computing technology, there are increasing interest and research in technologies such as sensors and RFID related to information recognition and location positioning in various ubiquitous fields. Especially, RTLS(Real-Time Locating Services) dealing with spatio-temporal data is emerging as a promising technology. For these reasons, the ISO/IEC published the RTLS standard specification for compatibility and interoperability in RTLS. Therefore, in this paper, we designed and implemented Spatio-temporal Query Processing Systems for efficiently managing and searching the incoming Spatio-temporal data stream of moving objects. Spatio-temporal Query Processing Systems's spatio-temporal middleware maintains interoperability among heterogeneous devices and guarantees data integrity in query processing through real time processing of unceasing spatio-temporal data streams and two way synchronization of spatio-temporal DBMSs. Web Server uses the SOAP(Simple Object Access Protocol) message between client and server for interoperability and translates client's SOAP message into CQL(Continuous Query Language) of the spatio-temporal middleware. Finally, this thesis proved the utility of the system by applying the spatio-temporal Query Processing Systems to a real-time Locating Services.

A finer granular scalable (FGS) version of ISO/IEC MPEG-4 video streaming is investigated in this work with the prioritized stream delivery over loss-rate differentiated networks. Our proposed system is focused on the seamless integration of rate adaptation, prioritized packetization, and simplified differentiation for the MPEG-4 FGS video streaming. The proposed system consists of three key components: 1) rate adaptation with scalable source encoding, 2) content-aware prioritized packetization, and 3) loss-based differential forwarding. More specifically, a constant-quality rate adaptation is first achieved by optimally truncating the over-coded FGS stream based on the embedding rate-distortion (R-D) information (obtained from a piecewise linear R-D model). The rate-controlled video stream is then packetized and prioritized according to the loss impact of each packet. Prioritized packets are transmitted over the underlying network, where packets are subject to differentiated dropping and forwarding. By focusing on the end-to-end quality, we establish an effective working conditions for the proposed video streaming and the superior performance is verified by simulated MPEG-4 FGS video streaming.

We propose an adaptive load balancing scheme to transport real-time video streams efficiently in this paper. The playback buffer level of a video requesting client is high or low temporarily in mobile environment. This scheme attempts to allocate more network bandwidth to serve a video request with the lower buffer level preferentially. In this scheme, the amount of network bandwidth is dynamically allocated to the requesting clients according to their playback buffer levels in a distributed mobile system. In order to improve the quality of service and real-time performance of individual video playback, the proposed load balancing scheme tries to maximize the number of frames that are transported successfully to the client prior to their playback times. Fair services can also be provided to all the concurrent clients by making their playback situation more adaptive. The performance of this load balancing scheme is compared with that of other static load balancing scheme through extensive simulation experiments, resulting in the higher ratio of frames transmitted successfully within given deadlines.
