Transcoding in the wireless mobile network is an important mechanism that reduces the delay time and improves the stream processing capacity. Wireless mobile streaming media services, however, have such problems as congestion, interference and delay due to narrow network bandwidth and limited resources. These problems degrade not only Quality of Service (QoS) but also responsiveness of the streaming media service. To solve this problem, this paper proposes a object version transcoding method. The proposed method analyzes the object versions to construct the transcoding graph. This paper utilizes a reference rate-based control function for an efficient streaming, and measures MVDS(Multiple Version Delay Saving) for an efficient delay savings. The simulation results show that the proposed mechanism achieves improved performance in delay rate and cache hit rate compared with those of other existing methods.

Such problems as delay, congestion, and crosstalk in the proxy system degrade not only QoS (Quality of Service) but responsiveness and reliability of the streaming media service. To solve this problem this paper proposed a FRTP (Fuzzy Relevance-based Transcoding Proxy) mechanism. The proposed FRTP mechanism analyzes fuzzy similarity for partitioned segment versions of media objects to create a FRTG (Fuzzy Relevance-based Transcoding Graph). Created FRTG determines the transcoding for partitioned media object segment versions. Determined transcoding improves DSR (Delay Saving Ratios), CHPR (Cache Hit Precision Ratio), and CHRR (Cache Hit Recall Ratio). The proposed mechanism is simulated to evaluate such performance parameters as DSR, CHPR, and CHRR. Simulation results shows that the proposed mechanism outperforms in DSR, CHPR and CHRR compared with the other existing mechanisms.

In order to transmit multimedia streams over the network with a timely changing channel bandwidth such as Internet, scalable video coding schemes have been studied to represent video in flexible bitstream. Much research has been made on how to represent encoded media(such as video) bitstream in scalable ways. In this paper, rte propose an optimal selection of the objects for MPEG-4 bitstream adaptation to meet a given constraint. We adopt a multiple choice knapsack problem with multi-step selection for the MPEG-4 objects with different bit-rate scaling levels in the MPEG-4 bitstream. The bitstream adaptation based on the optimal selection result is then to fetch the necessary parts of the MPEG-4 bitstream to constitute an adapted version of the original MPEG-4 binary resource. The experiment results show that the optimal selection of MPEG-4 objects for a given constraint can promisingly be made which meets the given constraint.

Streaming media has contributed to a significant amount of today's Internet Traffic. Like traditional web objects, rich media objects can benefit from proxy caching, but caching streaming media is more of challenging than caching simple web objects, because the streaming media have features such as huge size and high bandwidth. And to support various bandwidth requirements for the heterogeneous ubiquitous devices, a transcoding proxy is usually necessary to provide not only adapting multimedia streams to the client by transcoding, but also caching them for later use. The traditional proxy considers only a single version of the objects, whether they are to be cached or not. However the transcoding proxy has to evaluate the aggregate effect from caching multiple versions of the same object to determine an optimal set of cache objects. And recent researches about multimedia caching frequently store initial parts of videos on the proxy to reduce playback latency and archive better performance. Also lots of researches manage the contents with segments for efficient storage management. In this paper, we define the 9-events of transcoding proxy using 4-atomic events. According to these events, the transcoding proxy can define the next actions. Then, we also propose the segment-based caching policy for the transcoding proxy system. The performance results show that the proposing policy have a low delayed start time, high byte-hit ratio and less transcoding data.
