Full textHTTP adaptive streaming is a recent topic in multimedia communications with on-going standardization activities, especially with the MPEG-DASH standard which covers on demand and live services. One of the main issues in live services deployment is the reduction of various latencies, the initial delay before the playback and the overall end-to-end latency. In this thesis, we address the problem of these latencies in live DASH streaming. First, we review the causes of startup delay in DASH and common strategies used to reduce this delay. We propose a new method based on HTTP/1.1 and compatible with existing caching and delivery infrastructures for reducing the initial setup of an MPEG-DASH session. Second, we investigate the major contributor components to the end-to-end latency. We propose a complete novel low latency live DASH streaming system. Third, we show how such a low latency live DASH system can be used to enable combined broadcast and broadband services while keeping the client buffering requirements on the broadcast link low. Our proposed approach insures two functionalities: synchronization of both contents delivered through different distribution networks and keeping the client buffering requirements on the broadcast link low

Full textHTTP adaptive streaming (HAS) is a streaming video technique widely used over the Internet. It employs Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) as transport protocol and it splits the original video inside the server into segments of same duration, called "chunks", that are transcoded into multiple quality levels. The HAS player, on the client side, requests for one chunk each chunk duration and it commonly selects the quality level based on the estimated bandwidth of the previous chunk(s). Given that the HAS clients are located inside access networks, our investigation involves several HAS clients sharing the same bottleneck link and competing for bandwidth. Here, a degradation of both Quality of Experience (QoE) of HAS users and Quality of Service (QoS) of the access network are often recorded. The objective of this thesis is to optimize the TCP protocol in order to solve both QoE and QoS degradations. Our first contribution consists of proposing a gateway-based shaping method, that we called Receive Window Tuning Method (RWTM); it employs the TCP flow control and passive round trip time estimation on the gateway side. We compared the performances of RWTM with another gateway-based shaping method that is based on queuing discipline, called Hierarchical Token Bucket shaping Method (HTBM). The results of evaluation indicate that RWTM outperforms HTBM not only in terms of QoE of HAS but also in terms of QoS of access network by reducing the queuing delay and significantly reducing packet drop rate at the bottleneck.Our second contribution consists of a comparative evaluation when combining two shaping methods, RWTM and HTBM, and four very common TCP variants, NewReno, Vegas, Illinois and Cubic. The results show that there is a significant discordance in performance between combinations. Furthermore, the best combination that improves performances in the majority of scenarios is when combining Illinois variant with RWTM. In addition, the results reveal the importance of an efficient updating of the slow start threshold value, ssthresh, to accelerate the convergence toward the best feasible quality level. Our third contribution consists of proposing a novel HAS-based TCP variant, that we called TcpHas; it is a TCP congestion control algorithm that takes into consideration the specifications of HAS flow. Besides, it estimates the optimal quality level of its corresponding HAS flow based on end-to-end bandwidth estimation. Then, it permanently performs HAS traffic shaping based on the encoding rate of the estimated level. It also updates ssthresh to accelerate convergence speed. A comparative performance evaluation of TcpHas with a recent and well-known TCP variant that employs adaptive decrease mechanism, called Westwood+, was performed. Results indicated that TcpHas largely outperforms Westwood+; it offers better quality level stability on the optimal quality level, it dramatically reduces the packet drop rate and it generates lower queuing delay

Full textDue to the growth of video traffic over the Internet in recent years, HTTP AdaptiveStreaming (HAS) solution becomes the most popular streaming technology because ithas been succesfully adopted by the different actors in Internet video ecosystem. Itallows the service providers to use traditional stateless web servers and mobile edgecaches for streaming videos. Further, it allows users to access media content frombehind Firewalls and NATs.In this thesis we focus on the design of a novel video streaming delivery solutioncalled Backward-Shifted Coding (BSC), a complementary solution to Dynamic AdaptiveStreaming over HTTP (DASH), the standard version of HAS. We first describe theBackward-Shifted Coding scheme architecture based on the multi-layer Scalable VideoCoding (SVC). We also discuss the implementation of BSC protocol in DASH environment.Then, we perform the analytical evaluation of the Backward-Sihifted Codingusing results from queueing theory. The analytical results show that BSC considerablydecreases the video playback interruption which is the worst event that users can experienceduring the video session. Therefore, we design bitrate adaptation algorithms inorder to enhance the Quality of Experience (QoE) of the users in DASH/BSC system.The results of the proposed adaptation algorithms show that the flexibility of BSC allowsus to improve both the video quality and the variations of the quality during thestreaming session.Finally, we propose new caching policies to be used with video contents encodedusing SVC. Indeed, in DASH/BSC system, cache servers are deployed to make contentsclosed to the users in order to reduce network latency and improve user-perceived experience.We use Linear Programming to obtain optimal static cache composition tocompare with the results of our proposed algorithms. We show that these algorithmsincrease the system overall hit ratio and offload the backhaul links by decreasing thefetched content from the origin web servers

Full textAs mobile networking technology is experiencing perpetual evolution and the computing capabilities of mobile devices are being constantly enhanced, the demand for bandwidth-intensive mobile multimedia consumption is currently experiencing an unprecedented surge. In 2017, mobile video streaming accounted for 58% of the global mobile data traffic, a percentage that is projected to reach a striking 79% by 2022. Most of this traffic is Video on Demand (VoD) over HTTP Adaptive Streaming (HAS), which undoubtedly becomes fast an integral part of the mobile client’s life. HAS solutions employ rate adaptation algorithms, that seamlessly adjust the rate of the media stream, to compensate for changing network conditions. Most notably, Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP (DASH) is a standard for HAS, that uses existing web server infrastructure and is now the dominant solution for video delivery. Nonetheless, video delivery over mobile networks still faces substantial challenges, primarily in mobile networks, that are commonly characterized by throughput variation; primarily attributed to physical effects associated with radio propagation, along with shortterm session interruptions attributed to user mobility. Depending on the current user location, channel degradation can have a detrimental impact on user Quality of Experience (QoE). The scope of this dissertation is to treat these challenges of video delivery in mobile networks and expedite its optimization, under two distinct perspectives. Under the perspective of Over the Top (OTT) video service providers, we propose new mobile rate adaptation algorithms; whereas, under the perspective of telecommunication equipment vendors and network service operators, we explore the merits of HAS traffic collection and its analysis, on network management. Upon conducting a performance evaluation of stateof- the-art HAS schemes, we have identified 3 open issues in the current state of HAS. The first issue concerns the type of input that drives the rate adaptation logic. Although several rate adaptation algorithms have been introduced in order to improve user QoE, only few leverage cross-layer and sensor information that is nowadays readily available in all modern mobile devices, while most rely on either throughput estimation or application-level readings, such as the amount of pre-fetched data. In that direction, we propose a new context-aware rate adaptation solution, that incorporates cellular sensor information into the rate adaptation process. The second open issue concerns OTT video service providers, who are continuously expanding their services to include more diverse user classes, network scenarios, and streaming applications. Most existing rate adaptation algorithms depend on statistical models for the unknowns and thus face complications at generalizing appropriately well beyond a certain scope of usage. To mitigate this limitation, we propose a novel rate adaptation algorithm based on online learning, that performs well over a wide spectrum of streaming scenarios due to its design principle; its ability to learn. It does so without requiring any parameter tuning, modifications according to application type or statistical assumptions for the channel. Last, the third open issue regards the absence of available data-sets for up-to-date mobile video streaming traffic. To better understand HAS traffic and also in order to obtain reliable data that would ultimately enable operators to optimize their networks, we conduct an extensive experimental campaign to collect crosslayer information from streaming traffic. The resulting data-set is made publicly available, with data recorded at the transport, network and application layer; capturing video streaming traffic over QUIC, for the first time. Additionally, we use this data-set to design a novel traffic profiling solution, based on machine learning, that estimates parameters of HAS applications from passive measurements

Full textAs the traffic of video streaming increases significantly in mobile networks, it is essential for oper- ators to account for the features of this traffic when dimensioning and configuring the network. The focus of this thesis is on traffic models of video streaming in mobile networks. For real-time video streaming traffic, we derive an analytical form for an important Quality-of-Service (QoS) metric, the packet outage rate, and utilize the model for dimensioning. For HTTP adaptive video streaming traffic, we propose and evaluate other QoS metrics such as the mean video bit rate, the deficit rate and the buffer surplus, so as to find the good trade-off between video resolution and playback smoothness. We study by simulation the impacts of some key parameters of the system. We show that using smaller chunk durations, fewer video coding rates and round-robin scheduling may provide a smoother video playback but decrease the mean video resolution. We also propose to adapt the number of chunks downloaded in an HTTP request so that each HTTP request has the same data volume. Finally, we apply machine learning techniques to analyze the correlation between system characteristics and the quality of experience (QoE) of users

Full textLive Streaming consists in distributing live media (video and audio) to large audiences over a computer network. The traditional client-server approach to live streaming has a serious scalability limit, as the upload capacity requirement at the server grows linearly with the user population. A P2P solution has the big advantage of seamlessly scaling to arbitrary population sizes, as every node that receives the video, while consuming resources, can at the same time offer its own upload bandwidth to serve other nodes. In theory, if every node contributed on average at least as much as it consumed, the P2P system would have enough resources to grow indefinitely. This work presents and evaluates PULSE, a practical P2P live streaming system intended for large-scale deployment over the Internet. PULSE uses an unstructured mesh-based design and relies on local pairwise incentives as its peer selection mechanism. The most innovative feature of PULSE is the unique coupling of incentives with feedback derived from data reception, which leads to the emergence of clusters that regroup nodes with similar resources. By exploiting this intrinsic clustering phenomenon and by leveraging latency measurements to estimate network locality, PULSE is capable to successfully operate in a wide range of resource-constrained real world scenarios and to support dynamic user populations and heterogeneous node upload capacities

Full textRecently, cellular networks have witnessed a phenomenal growth of traffic fueled by new high speed broadband cellular access technologies. This growth is in large part driven by the emergence of the HTTP Adaptive Streaming (HAS) as a new video delivery method. In HAS, several qualities of the same videos are made available in the network so that clients can choose the quality that best fits their bandwidth capacity. This strongly impacts the viewing pattern of the clients, their switching behavior between video qualities, and thus beyond on content delivery systems. In this context, we provide an analysis of a real HAS dataset collected in France and provided by the largest French mobile operator. Firstly, we analyze and model the viewing patterns of VoD and live streaming HAS sessions and we propose a new cache replacement strategy, named WA-LRU. WA-LRU leverages the time locality of video segments within the HAS content. We show that WA-LRU improves the performance of the cache. Second, we analyze and model the adaptation logic between the video qualities based on empirical observations. We show that high switching behaviors lead to sub optimal caching performance, since several versions of the same content compete to be cached. In this context we investigate the benefits of a Cache Friendly HAS system (CF-DASH) which aims at improving the caching efficiency in mobile networks and to sustain the quality of experience of mobile clients. Third, we investigate the mobile video prefetching opportunities. We show that CPSys can achieve high performance as regards prediction correctness and network utilization efficiency. We further show that CPSys outperforms other prefetching schemes from the state of the art. At the end, we provide a proof-of-concept implementation of our prefetching system

Video applications account for a large percentage of Internet traffic, and their utilization tends to grow. In this scenario, multimedia providers are required to deliver video and/or audio content in a seamless manner, regardless of network conditions and client device capabilities. However, current commercial services are not efficient enough, and the academic proposals do not take full advantage of their potential. To this end, we propose a control-theoretic adaptive streaming over HTTP system, which adapts the video quality to the network conditions in a video session. With this system, we aim at delivering video with the highest Quality of Experience possible, while leveraging the available network resources. Our system is located at the client side, and comprises a control system and a state machine. Together, they select the video level that is requested to the server, a standard HTTP server, which sends video chunks as the client requests them. To select the control system and state machine that best fit our requirements, we perform several experiments with different parameter values combinations. Our parameter selection is accomplished in two steps, the last one resulting in the combination that best fits our needs. Then, we compare our system performance to an existent system in the academia. Our experimental results show the benefits of providing more aggressive decisions on the video quality selection. However, they also show that such aggressiveness may, sometimes, compromise the system performance. Overall, though, our system outperforms the baseline of our experiments.
A computação em nuvem é um paradigma computacional que vem sendo amplamente utilizado ao longo dos últimos anos devido as suas características de provisionamento de recursos de forma escalável, onde o usuário paga apenas por aquilo que consumir. Esse modelo computacional possibilita que diversos serviços sejam ofertados a partir da sua Infraestrutura como Serviço (IaaS - Infrastructure as a Service). Porém, a falha de componentes dos recursos da nuvem é algo bastante comum e que afeta diretamente a disponibilidade dos serviços que os utilizam. Garantir alta disponibilidade em serviços na nuvem é um desafio para provedores, que podem utilizar de técnicas como análise de sensibilidade para identificar gargalos de disponibilidade ou ainda fazer uso de mecanismos de tolerância à falhas para atingir melhores resultados de confiabilidade. Desse modo, esse trabalho tem como proposta realizar a avaliação de disponibilidade em arquiteturas para o provimento do serviço de VoD streaming na nuvem, baseado na plataforma Eucalyptus. O trabalho está dividido em dois estudos de caso. Primeiro, apresentamos uma arquitetura básica, sem mecanismos de redundância. Através de modelagem hierárquica formada por diagramas de blocos de confiabilidade (RBD - Reliability Block Diagram) e cadeias de Markov de tempo contínuo (CTMC - Continuous Time Markov Chain), realizamos a avaliação da disponibilidade para essa arquitetura, e em seguida alcançamos a validação do modelo que representa o funcionamento do serviço. Por fim, aplicamos a técnica de análise de sensibilidade paramétrica para identificar gargalos de disponibilidade na arquitetura básica. As análises seguintes que foram esse estudo de caso observam a disponibilidade do serviço em arquiteturas com redundância no modo warm-stand guiadas por índices de sensibilidade, apresentando ao final uma comparação dos valores de disponibilidade para cada arquitetura obtida a partir de componentes redundantes. O segundo estudo de caso analisa o comportamento da disponibilidade total do serviço a partir da variação no tempo de ativação dos mecanismos redundantes. Nossos resultados expressaram que a adoção de componentes redundantes no modo warm-stand na infraestrutura da nuvem proporciona ganhos de disponibilidade no serviço analisado. Também observamos que a variação do tempo de ativação do componente de maior confiabilidade tem maior impacto na disponibilidade total do serviço de VoD streaming.

Full textWhile streaming video services (Netflix + YouTube} represent more than 50% of US households consumed bandwidth, the growth of mobility (4G LTE + LTEa) and the arrival of 3 next generation networks (NGN) with the distinction between network operator and service operator may change the business model of service providers. The Best-Effort model currently used by streaming services will decrease due to its hight cost. It is therefore necessary to consider a model optimizing the service flow based on real users expectations. The main objective of this thesis is to propose a solution which take into account the QoE in streaming services. In the first art of this thesis, we highlight the very personal nature of the quality of experience during viewing multimedia session. This is achieved by subjective tests on fifty users. Then, we present an architecture for the QoE consideration in HTTP adaptive streaming protocols (HTTP Live Streaming, DASH ...) to make adaptation decisions based on implicit expectations of the user. A proof of concept is illustrated through an open source project (http://ipfhas.github.io/)

Full textTelecommunication network has evolved from 1G to 4G in the past decades. One of the typical characteristics of the 4G network is the coexistence of heterogeneous radio access technologies, which offers end-users the capability to connect them and to switch between them with their mobile devices of the new generation. However, selecting the right network is not an easy task for mobile users since access network condition changes rapidly. Moreover, video streaming is becoming the major data service over the mobile network where content providers and network operators should cooperate to guarantee the quality of video delivery. In order to cope with this context, the thesis concerns the design of a novel approach for making an optimal network selection decision and architecture for improving the performance of adaptive streaming in the context of a heterogeneous network. Firstly, we introduce an analytical model (i.e. linear discrete-time system) to describe the network selection procedure considering one traffic class. Then, we consider the design of a selection strategy based on foundations from linear optimal control theory, with the objective to maximize network resource utilization while meeting the constraints of the supported services. Computer simulations with MATLAB are carried out to validate the efficiency of the proposed mechanism. Based on the same principal we extend this model with a general analytical model describing the network selection procedures in heterogeneous network environments with multiple traffic classes. The proposed model was, then, used to derive a scalable mechanism based on control theory, which allows not only to assist in steering dynamically the traffic to the most appropriate network access but also helps in blocking the residual traffic dynamically when the network is congested by adjusting dynamically the access probabilities. We discuss the advantages of a seamless integration with the ANDSF. A prototype is also implemented into ns-3. Simulation results sort out that the proposed scheme prevents the network congestion and demonstrates the effectiveness of the controller design, which can maximize the network resources allocation by converging the network workload to the targeted network occupancy. Thereafter, we focus on enhancing the performance of DASH in a mobile network environment for the users which has one access network. We introduce a novel architecture based on MEC. The proposed adaptation mechanism, running as an MEC service, can modify the manifest files in real time, responding to network congestion and dynamic demand, thus driving clients towards selecting more appropriate quality/bitrate video representations. We have developed a virtualized testbed to run the experiment with our proposed scheme. The simulation results demonstrate its QoE benefits compared to traditional, purely client-driven, bitrate adaptation approaches since our scheme notably improves both on the achieved MOS and on fairness in the face of congestion. Finally, we extend the proposed the MEC-based architecture to support the DASH service in a multi-access heterogeneous network in order to maximize the QoE and fairness of mobile users. In this scenario, our scheme should help users select both video quality and access network and we formulate it as an optimization problem. This optimization problem can be solved by IBM CPLEX tool. However, this tool is time-consuming and not scalable. Therefore, we introduce a heuristic algorithm to make a sub-optimal solution with less complexity. Then we implement a testbed to conduct the experiment and the result demonstrates that our proposed algorithm notably can achieve similar performance on overall achieved QoE and fairness with much more time-saving compared to the IBM CPLEX tool

Full textThe emerging and fast growth of multimedia services have created new challenges for network service providers in order to guarantee the best user's Quality of Experience (QoE) in diverse networks with distinctive access technologies. Usually, various methods and techniques are used to predict the user satisfaction level by studying the combined impact of numerous factors. In this thesis, we consider two important multimedia services to evaluate the user perception, which are: video streaming service, and VoIP. This study investigates user's QoE that follows three directions: (1) methodologies for subjective QoE assessment of video services, (2) regulating user's QoE using video a rate adaptive algorithm, and (3) QoE-based power efficient resource allocation methods for Long Term Evaluation-Advanced (LTE-A) for VoIP. Initially, we describe two subjective methods to collect the dataset for assessing the user's QoE. The subjectively collected dataset is used to investigate the influence of different parameters (e.g. QoS, video types, user profile, etc.) on user satisfaction while using the video services. Later, we propose a client-based HTTP rate adaptive video streaming algorithm over TCP protocol to regulate the user's QoE. The proposed method considers three Quality of Service (QoS) parameters that govern the user perception, which are: Bandwidth, Buffer, and dropped Frame rate (BBF). The BBF method dynamically selects the suitable video quality according to network conditions and user's device properties. Lastly, we propose a QoE driven downlink scheduling method, i.e. QoE Power Escient Method (QEPEM) for LTE-A. It esciently allocates the radio resources, and optimizes the use of User Equipment (UE) power utilizing the Discontinuous Reception (DRX) method in LTE-A

Full textThe acquisition and delivery of video content with minimal latency has become essential in several business areas such as sports broadcasting, video conferencing, telepresence, remote vehicle operation, or remote system control. The live streaming industry has grown in 2020 and it will expand further in the next few years with the emergence of new high-efficiency video codecs based on the Versatile Video Coding (VVC) standard and the fifth generation of mobile networks (5G).HTTP Adaptive Streaming (HAS) methods such as MPEG-DASH, using algorithms to adapt the transmission rate of compressed video, have proven to be very effective in improving the quality of experience (QoE) in a video-on-demand (VOD) context.Nevertheless, minimizing the delay between image acquisition and display at the receiver is essential in applications where latency is critical. Most rate adaptation algorithms are developed to optimize video transmission from a server situated in the core network to mobile clients. In applications requiring low-latency streaming, such as remote control of drones or broadcasting of sports events, the role of the server is played by a mobile terminal. The latter will acquire, compress, and transmit the video and transmit the compressed stream via a radio access channel to one or more clients. Therefore, client-driven rate adaptation approaches are unsuitable in this context because of the variability of the channel characteristics. In addition, HAS, for which the decision-making is done with a periodicity of the order of a second, are not sufficiently reactive when the server is moving, which may generate significant delays. It is therefore important to use a very fine adaptation granularity in order to reduce the end-to-end delay. The reduced size of the transmission and reception buffers (to minimize latency) makes it more difficult to adapt the throughput in our use case. When the bandwidth varies with a time constant smaller than the period with which the regulation is made, bad transmission rate decisions can induce a significant latency overhead.The aim of this thesis is to provide some answers to the problem of low-latency delivery of video acquired, compressed, and transmitted by mobile terminals. We first present a frame-by-frame rate adaptation algorithm for low latency broadcasting. A Model Predictive Control (MPC) approach is proposed to determine the coding rate of each frame to be transmitted. This approach uses information about the buffer level of the transmitter and about the characteristics of the transmission channel. Since the frames are coded live, a model relating the quantization parameter (QP) to the output rate of the video encoder is required. Hence, we have proposed a new model linking the rate to the QP of the current frame and to the distortion of the previous frame. This model provides much better results in the context of a frame-by-frame decision on the coding rate than the reference models in the literature.In addition to the above techniques, we have also proposed tools to reduce the complexity of video encoders such as VVC. The current version of the VVC encoder (VTM10) has an execution time nine times higher than that of the HEVC encoder. Therefore, the VVC encoder is not suitable for real-time encoding and streaming applications on currently available platforms. In this context, we present a systematic branch-and-prune method to identify a set of coding tools that can be disabled while satisfying a constraint on coding efficiency. This work contributes to the realization of a real-time VVC coder

Full textDriven by the increasing demand for multimedia services in broadband Internet networks, WIMAX technology has emerged as a competitive alternative to the wired broadband access solutions. The IEEE 802.16 is a solution that provides high throughput by ensuring a satisfactory QoS. In particular, it is suitable for multimedia applications that have strict QoS constraints. However, the users’ heterogeneity and diversity in terms of bandwidth, radio conditions and available resources, pose new deployment challenges. Indeed, multimedia applications need to interact with their environment to inform the access network about their QoS requirements and dynamically adapt to changing network conditions.In this context, we propose two solutions for video streaming over 802.16 networks based on Cross-Layer approach. We are interested in both unicast and multicast transmissions in uplink and downlink of one or more WIMAX cells.First, we proposed an architecture that enables Cross-Layer adaptation and optimization of video streaming based on available resources. We defined the entity CLO (Cross-Layer Optimizer) that takes benefits from service flow management messages, exchanged between BS and SS, at the MAC level, to determine the necessary adaptations / adjustment to ensure optimal delivery of the application. Adaptations occur at two epochs, during the admission of the video stream and during the streaming phase. The performance analysis, performed through simulations, shows the effectiveness of the CLO to adapt in a dynamic way, the video data rate depending on network conditions, and thus guarantee an optimal QoS.Second, we proposed a solution that enables IP multicast video delivery in WIMAX network. This solution allows finding the compromise between the diversity of end-user requirements, in terms of radio conditions, modulation schemes and available resources, along with the SVC hierarchy video format, to offer the best video quality even for users with low radio conditions. Indeed, we define a multicast architecture that allows each user to get a video quality proportionally to its radio conditions and its available bandwidth. Towards this end, several IP multicast groups are created depending on the SVC video layers. Subsequently, our solution allows optimizing the use of radio resources by exploiting the different modulations that can be selected by the end-users

Full textWith the network heterogeneity and increasing demand of multimedia services, Quality of Experience (QoE) becomes a crucial determinant of the success or failure of these services. In this thesis, we first propose to analyze the impact of quality metrics on user engagement, in order to understand the effects of video metrics (video startup time, average bitrate, buffering ratio) and content popularity on user engagement. Our results show that video buffering and content popularity are critical parameters which strongly impacts the end-user’s satisfaction and user engagement, while the video startup time appears as less significant. On other hand, we consider subjective approaches such as the Mean Opinion Score (MOS) for evaluating QoE, in which users are required to give their assessment according to contextual information. A detailed statistical analysis of our study shows the existence of non-trivial parameters impacting MOS (the type of device and the content type). We propose mathematical models to develop functional relationships between the QoE and the context information which in turn permits us to estimate the QoE. A video content optimization technique called MDASH (for MOS Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP) is proposed, which improves the perceived QoE for different video sessions sharing the same local network, while taking QoE fairness among users as a leitmotiv. We also propose a utility-based approach for video delivery optimization, in which a global utility function is computed based on different constraints (e.g. target strategies coming from the actors of the delivery chain)

Full textThe amount of data produced by today’s web-based systems and applications increases rapidly, due to the many interactions with users (e.g. real-time stock market transactions, multiplayer games, streaming data produced by Twitter, etc.). As a result, there is a growing demand, particularly in the fields of commerce, security and research, for systems capable of processing this data in real time and providing useful information in a short space of time. Stream processing systems (SPS) meet these needs and have been widely used for this purpose. The aim of SPSs is to process large volumes of data in real time by housing a set of operators in applications based on Directed acyclic graphs (DAG). Most existing SPSs, such as Flink or Storm, are configured prior to deployment, usually defining the DAG and the number of operator replicas in advance. Overestimating the number of replicas can lead to a waste of allocated resources. On the other hand, depending on interaction with the environment, the rate of input data can fluctuate dynamically and, as a result, operators can become overloaded, leading to a degradation in system performance. These SPSs are not capable of dynamically adapting to operator workload and input rate variations. One solution to this problem is to dynamically increase the number of resources, physical or logical, allocated to the SPS when the processing demand of one or more operators increases. This thesis presents two SPSs, RA-SPS and PA-SPS, reactive and predictive approach respectively, for dynamically modifying the number of operator replicas. The reactive approach relies on the current state of operators computed on multiple metrics, while the predictive model is based on input rate variation, operator execution time, and queued events. The two SPSs extend Storm SPS to dynamically reconfigure the number of copies without having to downtime the application. They also implement a load balancer that distributes incoming events fairly among operator replicas. Experiments on the Google Cloud Platform (GCP) were carried out with applications that process Twitter data, DNS traffic, or logs traces. Performance was evaluated with different configurations and the results were compared with those of running the same applications on the original Storm as well as with state-of-the-art work such as SPS DABS-Storm, which also adapt the number of replicas. The comparison shows that both RA-SPS and PA-SPS can significantly improve the number of events processed, while reducing costs

Full textSingle-source HTTP Adaptive Streaming solutions (HAS) have become the de-facto solutions to deliver video over the Internet mostly due to their capabilities to increase end-user’s Quality of Experience (QoE) as well as their ease of deployment due to the usage of the HTTP protocol. Although HAS solutions can increase QoE by trading off the delivered video quality to minimize the number of video freezing events, they are limited by the bandwidth available on the considered communication channel between the client and the server. This thesis exposes our contributions in building lightweight pragmatic and evolving solutions advocating for the simultaneous usage of multiple sources with heterogeneous capacities so as to achieve high QoE content delivery at low cost. The first contribution of this work presents a streaming solution extending HAS capabilities to a pragmatic multi-server technique: MS-Stream. MS-Stream provides the means to exploit expanded bandwidth and link diversity in distributed heterogeneous network infrastructures. In our second contribution, we propose MATHIAS, a client-side two-phase consumption and adaptation algorithm implemented into MSStream. MATHIAS aims at increasing the end-user’s perceived streaming quality while utilizing the most of the heterogeneous capacities offered at the service and network environments. Finally, we further extend the QoE and scalability capabilities of MS-Stream and MATHIAS by leveraging on clients’ connectivity capacities and we expose our third contribution: a hybrid P2P/Multi-server live-Streaming system (PMS) incorporating distributed quality and scalability adaptation mechanisms

Full textWith the advances in 3D models editing and 3D reconstruction techniques, more and more 3D models are available and their quality is increasing. Furthermore, the support of 3D visualisation on the web has become standard during the last years. A major challenge is thus to deliver these remote heavy models and to allow users to visualize and navigate in these virtual environments. This thesis focuses on 3D content streaming and interaction, and proposes three major contributions. First, we develop a 3D scene navigation interface with bookmarks -- small virtual objects added to the scene that the user can click on to ease reaching a recommended location. We describe a user study where participants navigate in 3D scenes with and without bookmarks. We show that users navigate (and accomplish a given task) faster when using bookmarks. However, this faster navigation has a drawback on the streaming performance: a user who moves faster in a scene requires higher streaming capabilities in order to enjoy the same quality of service. This drawback can be mitigated using the fact that bookmarks positions are known in advance: by ordering the faces of the 3D model according to their visibility at a bookmark, we optimize the streaming and thus, decrease the latency when users click on bookmarks. Secondly, we propose an adaptation of Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP (DASH), the video streaming standard, to 3D textured meshes streaming. To do so, we partition the scene into a k-d tree where each cell corresponds to a DASH adaptation set. Each cell is further divided into DASH segments of a fixed number of faces, grouping together faces of similar areas. Each texture is indexed in its own adaptation set, and multiple DASH representations are available for different resolutions of the textures. All the metadata (the cells of the k-d tree, the resolutions of the textures, etc.) is encoded in the Media Presentation Description (MPD): an XML file that DASH uses to index content. Thus, our framework inherits DASH scalability. We then propose clients capable of evaluating the usefulness of each chunk of data depending on their viewpoint, and streaming policies that decide which chunks to download. Finally, we investigate the setting of 3D streaming and navigation on mobile devices. We integrate bookmarks in our 3D version of DASH and propose an improved version of our DASH client that benefits from bookmarks. A user study shows that with our dedicated bookmark streaming policy, bookmarks are more likely to be clicked on, enhancing both users quality of service and quality of experience

Full textWhile there is an increasing demand for streaming video applications on IP networks, various network characteristics make the deployment of these applications more challenging than traditional internet applications like email and web. These applications that transmit audiovisual data over IP must cope with the time varying bandwidth and delay of the network and must be resilient to packet loss and error. This dissertation thesis examines these challenges and presents a cross layer video streamin over large scale IP networks with statistical quality of service (QoS) guarantee. Video sequences are typically compressed according to the emerging MPEG-4 multimedia framework to achieve bandwidth efficiency an content-based interactivity. The original characteristic of MPEG-4 is to provide an integrated object-oriented representation and coding of natural and synthetic audio-visual content for manipulating and transporting over a broad range of communication infrastructures. The originality of this work is to propose a cross-layer approach for resolving some of the critical issues on delivering packet video data over IP networks with satisfactory quality of service. While, current and past works on this topic respect the protocol layer isolation paradigm, the key idea behind our work is to break this limitation and to rather inject content-level semantic and service-level requirement within the proposed IP video transport mechanics and protocols

For this research a small sample of people will be assessed between 18 and 30 years of probabilistic and transversely with questionnaire responses using ordinal items made taking as base questionnaires authors who conducted similar research. It is necessary to continue with the study of these factors, since in the future it may become a striking indicator in terms of the attributes that these users look for when using these platforms, in such a way that they can adapt to what users expect, through a finding of these factors.

One interesting application is to interactively visualize the Earth in 3D on a computer while loading the required data from a huge database over a network. In the first part of this thesis, we introduce a generic solution to handle sample maps of any size from a server hard disk all the way to a client rendering system. Our methods adapt to the speed of the network and of the rendering and avoid handling redundant data. In a second part, we build upon the generic solution to propose real-time 3D rendering of large textured terrains on graphics hardware. In addition, we support planetary terrains and use techniques that prevent handling redundant data and limit typical rendering inconsistencies due to map projection and rendering precision. Finally, we propose preprocessing algorithms that allow to build server databases from huge sample maps

Full textTiivistelmä Väitöskirja tutkii langattomien ja heterogeenisen verkkoympäristöjen vaikutusta erityisesti mobiilikäyttöön suunnattuihin suoratoistovideopalveluihin (streaming). Työn tavoitteena on löytää keino optimoida verkkoyhteyden palvelunlaadulle (QoS) herkän suoratoistovideon toiminta sekä videopalvelun laadun että verkon tiedonsiirtokapasiteetin käytön osalta. Tämä tapahtuu mahdollistamalla heterogeenisten verkkojen tehokas käyttö suoratoistovideopalvelujen tapauksessa. Tavoitellut parannukset vaativat kuitenkin muutoksia nykyiseen kerroksittaiseen Internet-arkkitehtuuriin. Väitöskirjassa esitetään arkkitehtuuri protokollakerrosten välisen tiedon (cross-layer) välitykseen ja hyödyntämiseen suoratoistovideopalvelujen tiedonsiirron kontrolloinnissa. Arkkitehtuuria voidaan käyttää laaja-alaiseen kontekstitiedon välitykseen tietoverkoissa, mikä mahdollistaa tehokkaan videopalvelun adaptoinnin ja päätelaitteen liikkuvuudenhallinnan heterogeenisissa verkoissa, joissa palvelunlaatu vaihtelee. Väitöskirja myös ehdottaa erilaisia ratkaisuja videopalvelun adaptoinnin ja tiedonsiirron parantamiseksi arkkitehtuuria hyödyntämällä. Näihin lukeutuvat usealle protokollakerrokselle toteutettu videon adaptointi, verkkoyhteyden ruuhkautumiseen reagoiva yhteydensiirto sekä usean verkkoyhteyden samanaikainen käyttö videopalvelun tiedonsiirrossa. Videon adaptoinnissa ja siirrossa hyödynnetään uutta skaalautuvaa videonkoodausteknologiaa, joka mahdollistaa vaaditun, joustavan videobittivirran muokkauksen. Liikkuvuudenhallinnan osalta työssä keskitytään pääosin kehittämään Mobile IP -protokollan päätöksentekoa suoratoistovideopalvelujen tapauksessa. Lopuksi väitöskirjassa esitetään kokonaisvaltainen ja koordinoitu ratkaisu videopalvelun adaptoinnin sekä päätelaitteen liikkuvuuden hallintaan päästä päähän -optimoinnin saavuttamiseksi. Tuloksena esitetyt järjestelmäarkkitehtuuri ja protokollakerrosten välistä tietoa käyttävät hallinta-algoritmit evaluoitiin simulaatioiden ja oikeiden prototyyppien avulla. Tulokset osoittavat, että ehdotettuja menetelmiä voidaan käyttää parantamaan suoratoistovideopalvelujen suorituskykyä heterogeenisissa verkoissa. Ratkaisut vaativat muutoksia verkko- ja palveluarkkitehtuureihin, mutta niiden asteittainen tai osittainen käyttöönotto on mahdollista. Tulokset osoittavat myös protokollakerrosten välisen tiedon tarpeellisuuden langattomien ja heterogeenisten verkkojen tehokkaassa käytössä

A internet evoluiu consideravelmente em vários aspectos e atualmente desempenha um papel fundamental no cotidiano das pessoas, isso possibilitou a existência de vários tipos de serviços, como, por exemplo, o streaming multimídia. Neste contexto, foi desenvolvido o DASH, que é um padrão para entrega de streaming de mídia que está sendo largamente adotado em serviços com foco em multimídia. Serviços como o YouTube e Netflix já utilizam este padrão há algum tempo, uma vez que permite melhor qualidade de experiência, pois a taxa de bits e a resolução do vídeo se adaptam às condições do tráfego de rede e reduzem travamentos indesejados do vídeo durante a transmissão. Deste modo é possível diminuir a irritabilidade dos usuários ao se assistir um vídeo que fica parando repentinamente por causa da qualidade do serviço de rede (QoS). Os dispositivos móveis (smartphones e tablets) foram fatores que ajudaram na expansão do streaming de vídeo junto com a evolução das tecnologias de telefonia móvel, pois o número de usuários de smartphones tem crescido rapidamente em todo o mundo e são aparelhos cada vez mais utilizados para assistir vídeos. Apesar da viabilidade do DASH para aumentar a qualidade de experiência, os dispositivos móveis são limitados pela capacidade de armazenamento energético da bateria, e o streaming de vídeo pode ser uma importante fonte de consumo de energia. Este trabalho avalia o DASH para streaming de vídeo no dispositivo móvel, levando em consideração a qualidade de experiência (QoE) e o consumo de energia, investigando os seguintes fatores: (i) a tecnologia de rede; (ii) a largura de banda da rede; e (iii) o tipo de vídeo. Para esta avaliação foram feitos dois experimentos utilizando três tecnologias de rede, três larguras de banda e oito vídeos, em que quatro não utilizaram o DASH e quatro utilizaram o DASH com quatro segmentos de tempo diferentes. O primeiro experimento consiste em avaliar o consumo de energia, qualidade de experiência, tempo de buffering e bytes recebidos durante a transmissão do vídeo, bem como suas interações. O segundo experimento foi feito injetando falhas periódicas durante a transmissão do vídeo, com a intenção de avaliar o padrão DASH sobre a flutuação da largura de banda. Os resultados experimentais demonstram que esses fatores e suas interações podem ter grande influência sobre o consumo de energia e a qualidade de experiência do vídeo. Além disso, foi possível se ter uma ideia do comportamento do consumo de energia ocasionado pela transmissão do vídeo em diferentes tecnologias de redes e larguras de banda.
The internet has evolved considerably in many aspects and currently plays a key role in people’s daily lives, such evolution of the internet made possible the existence of various types of services, such as multimedia streaming. In this context, DASH was developed, which is a standard for media streaming. DASH is being widely adopted in services with a focus on multimedia. Services such as YouTube and Netflix already use that pattern, since that standard allows a better quality experience, as the bitrate and video resolution adapt to the network traffic conditions and reduces unwanted video interruptions during transmission, thus it is possible to reduce the irritability of users to watch a video that is suddenly stopped because of the network quality of service (QoS). Mobile devices (smartphones and tablets) were one of the factors that helped in the expansion of video streaming; Along with the evolution of mobile technologies, the number of users who use a smartphone has grown rapidly throughout the world and smartphones are increasingly used to watch videos. Although DASH’s feasibility to improve the quality of experience, the mobile devices are limited by the energy storage capacity of the battery, and the video streaming can be an important source of energy consumption. This study evaluates the DASH video streaming on mobiles, considering the quality of experience (QoE) and power consumption, by investigating the following factors: (i) network technology; (ii) the network bandwidth; and (iii) the type of video. For this evaluation, two experiments were performed using three network technologies, three bandwidths, and eight videos in which four non-using DASH and four using DASH, besides four different time segments. The first experiment consists in measuring the energy consumption, the quality of experience, the buffer time and the bytes received during the transmission of video, as well as their interactions. The second experiment was performed by injecting periodic failures during the transmission of the video, with the goal of evaluating the DASH standard on the fluctuation of the network bandwidth. Experimental results show that these factors and their interactions can have great influence on the energy consumption and quality of experience of the video. Moreover, it was possible to get an idea of the energy consumption behavior caused by the transmission and display of video in different network technologies and bandwidths.

Full textThere is an increasing demand for scalable deployment of real-time multimedia streaming applications over Internet. In this context, Peer-to-Peer (P2P) networks are playing an important role for supporting robust and large-scale transmission of multimedia content to heterogeneous clients. However, the deployment of real-time video streaming applications over P2P networks arises lot of challenges due to heterogeneity of terminals and access networks, dynamicity of peers, and other problems inherited from IP network. Real-time streaming applications are very sensitive to packet loss, jitter / transmission delay, and available end-to-end bandwidth. These elements have key importance in QoS provisioning and need extra consideration for smooth delivery of video streaming applications over P2P networks. Beside the abovementioned issues, P2P applications lack of awareness in constructing their overlay topologies and do not have any explicit interaction with service and network providers. This situation leads to inefficient utilization of network resources and may cause potential violation of peering agreements between providers. The aim of this thesis is to analyze these issues and to propose an adaptive real-time transport mechanism for QoS provisioning of Scalable Video Coding (SVC) applications over P2P networks. Our contributions in this dissertation are threefold. First, we propose a hybrid overlay organization mechanism allowing intelligent organization of sender peers based on network-awareness, media- awareness, and quality-awareness. This overlay organization is further used for an appropriate selection of best sender peers, and the efficient switching of peers to ensure a smooth video delivery when any of the sender peers is no more reliable. Second, we propose a packet video scheduling mechanism to assign different parts of the video content to specific peers. Third, we present a service provider driven P2P network framework that enables effective interaction between service / network providers and P2P applications to perform QoS provisioning mechanism for the video streaming

Full text[CA] Aquesta tesi presenta diverses propostes encaminades a millorar la transmissió de vídeo a través de l'estàndard DASH (Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP). Aquest treball de recerca estudia el protocol de transmissió DASH i les seves característiques. Alhora, planteja la codificació amb qualitat constant i bitrate variable com a manera de codificació del contingut de vídeo més indicada per a la transmissió de contingut sota demanda mitjançant l'estàndard DASH. Derivat de la proposta d'utilització de la manera de codificació de qualitat constant, cobra major importància el paper que juguen els algorismes d'adaptació en l'experiència dels usuaris en consumir el contingut. En aquest sentit, aquesta tesi presenta un algoritme d'adaptació denominat Look Ahead el qual, sense modificar l'estàndard, permet utilitzar la informació de les grandàries dels segments de vídeo inclosa en els contenidors multimèdia per a evitar prendre decisions d'adaptació que desemboquin en una parada indesitjada en la reproducció de contingut multimèdia. Amb l'objectiu d'avaluar les possibles millores de l'algoritme d'adaptació presentat, es proposen tres models d'avaluació objectiva de la QoE. Els models proposats permeten predir de manera senzilla la QoE que tindrien els usuaris de manera objectiva, utilitzant paràmetres coneguts com el bitrate mitjà, el PSNR (Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio) i el valor de VMAF (Video Multimethod Assessment Fusion). Tots ells aplicats a cada segment. Finalment, s'estudia el comportament de DASH en entorns Wi-Fi amb alta densitat d'usuaris. En aquest context es produeixen un nombre elevat de parades en la reproducció per una mala estimació de la taxa de transferència disponible deguda al patró ON/OFF de descàrrega de DASH i a la variabilitat de l'accés al mitjà de Wi-Fi. Per a pal·liar aquesta situació, es proposa un servei de coordinació basat en la tecnologia SAND (MPEG's Server and Network Assisted DASH) que proporciona una estimació de la taxa de transferència basada en la informació de l'estat dels players dels clients.
[EN] This thesis presents several proposals aimed at improving video transmission through the DASH (Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP) standard. This research work studies the DASH transmission protocol and its characteristics. At the same time, this work proposes the use of encoding with constant quality and variable bitrate as the most suitable video content encoding mode for on-demand content transmission through the DASH standard. Based on the proposal to use the constant quality encoding mode, the role played by adaptation algorithms in the user experience when consuming multimedia content becomes more important. In this sense, this thesis presents an adaptation algorithm called Look Ahead which, without modifying the standard, allows the use of the information on the sizes of the video segments included in the multimedia containers to avoid making adaptation decisions that lead to undesirable stalls during the playback of multimedia content. In order to evaluate the improvements of the presented adaptation algorithm, three models of objective QoE evaluation are proposed. These models allow to predict in a simple way the QoE that users would have in an objective way, using well-known parameters such as the average bitrate, the PSNR (Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio) and the VMAF (Video Multimethod Assessment Fusion). All of them applied to each segment. Finally, the DASH behavior in Wi-Fi environments with high user density is analyzed. In this context, there could be a high number of stalls in the playback because of a bad estimation of the available transfer rate due to the ON/OFF pattern of DASH download and to the variability of the access to the Wi-Fi environment. To relieve this situation, a coordination service based on SAND (MPEG's Server and Network Assisted DASH) is proposed, which provides an estimation of the transfer rate based on the information of the state of the clients' players.

Due to increasing demand of HTTP Adaptive Streaming (HAS) in the last years, se-veral studies have been performed to develop multimedia content distribution techniques to the Internet, aiming to improve the users Quality of Experience (QoE). Techniques such as algorithms that automatically adjust the bit rates to network conditions during a video session and algorithms that assist in the preparation of multimedia content for access by customers. Although there are a large number of studies in this area, many have not explored network resource sharing scenarios between multiple clients and little have investigated issues relating to preparation of the content multimedia. Making it necessary to study more about this complex scenario for the future to ensure a fairer distribution of network resources, furthermore users can experience similar qualities. In addition, pre-paration of the content should be viewed as an important process such as the adaptive algorithms for better distribution of the content and to improve the QoE. This work pre-sents a video stream adaptation strategy that takes into account factors related to QoE, as the playback interruption frequency. The goal is to minimize the amount of video playback interruption, thereby improving its continuity. The experiments are performed in different network scenarios for one client and in extreme resource scarcity scenarios on a share across multiple clients. Furthermore, we experienced versioning videos with different granularity and FPS (frames per second). In the results, the used metrics are average video bit rate, probability of interruptions, instability and fairness. In addition, this work presents the study of the impact of the strategy on such metrics.
A ampla adoção do Streaming Adaptativo sobre HTTP tem motivado estudos relacionado as técnicas de distribuição de conteúdo multimídia na Internet. Os esforços têm sido no sentido de desenvolver novas estratégias de acesso a esse conteúdo considerando o modelo de serviço de melhor esforço implementado na Internet. Apesar da grande quantidade de estudos, poucos exploram cenários de compartilhamento da rede de acesso entre clientes e investigam questões relacionadas à preparação do conteúdo distribuído. Investigar a dinâmica de acesso, em ambiente compartilhado, tem como motivação principal melhorar a QoE dos usuários, minimizando o número de interrupções experimentadas pelos usuários do sistema de distribuição do conteúdo. Por outro lado, a preparação do conteúdo visa um ajuste com a estratégia de acesso proposta, ao mesmo tempo que se reconhece os limites dos recursos de armazenamento e transmissão. Nesta dissertação apresenta-se uma estratégia para acesso a conteúdo multimídia que compreende em re-comendações de versionamento e um algoritmo adaptativo, o versionamento é preparado conforme a padronização DASH e o algoritmo reconhece as condições da rede, além disso suas decisões são baseadas na frequência de interrupção da reprodução. A estratégia proposta melhora a continuidade da sessão de acesso, um parâmetro de QoE importante no contexto de transmissão de streaming de vídeo. Nos primeiros resultados numéricos foram avaliados diferentes valores de granularidade da taxa de bits e de volume do fluxo de dados. No posteriores foram avaliadas as seguintes métricas: i) taxa de bits média, ii) número e duração das interrupções e iii) instabilidade e justiça, em diferentes cenários de rede, caracterizados pelo compartilhamento com vários clientes.

Full textOn the one hand, technology advances have led to the expansion of the handheld devices market. Thanks to this expansion, people are more and more connected and more and more data are exchanged over the Internet. On the other hand, this huge amound of data imposes drastic constrains in order to achieve sufficient quality. The Internet is now showing its limits to assure such quality. To answer nowadays limitations, a next generation Internet is envisioned. This new network takes into account the content nature (video, audio, ...) and the context (network state, terminal capabilities ...) to better manage its own resources. To this extend, video manipulation is one of the key concept that is highlighted in this arising context. Video content is more and more consumed and at the same time requires more and more resources. Adapting videos to the network state (reducing its bitrate to match available bandwidth) or to the terminal capabilities (screen size, supported codecs, …) appears mandatory and is foreseen to take place in real time in networking devices such as home gateways. However, video adaptation is a resource intensive task and must be implemented using hardware accelerators to meet the desired low cost and real time constraints.In this thesis, content- and context-awareness is first analyzed to be considered at the network side. Secondly, a generic low cost video adaptation system is proposed and compared to existing solutions as a trade-off between system complexity and quality. Then, hardware conception is tackled as this system is implemented in an FPGA based architecture. Finally, this system is used to evaluate the indirect effects of video adaptation; energy consumption reduction is achieved at the terminal side by reducing video characteristics thus permitting an increased user experience for End-Users

Full textThe use of digital video over IP has increased exponentially over the last years, due to the development of high-speed networks dedicated to high quality TV transmission as well as the wide development of the nonprofessional video webcast. Optimization of the H.264/AVC encoding process allows manufacturers to offer differentiating encoding solutions, by reducing the bandwidth necessary for transmitting a video sequence at a given quality level, or improving the quality perceived by final users at a fixed bit rate. This thesis was carried out at the company Digigram in a context of professional high quality video. We propose two solutions of preprocessing which consider the characteristics of the human visual system by exploiting a JND profile (Just Noticeable Distortion). A JND model defines perceptual thresholds, below which a distortion cannot be seen, according to the video content. The first solution proposes an adaptive pre-filter independent to the encoder, controlled by a JND profile to reduce the perceptually non-relevant content and so reduce the bitrate while maintaining the perceived quality. By analyzing the state-of-the-art literature, the AWA (Adaptive Weighted Averaging) and Bilateral filters have been selected. Then we define two new filters using a large convolution mask, which enable to better exploit correlations in high-definition video contents. Through subjective tests, we show that the proposed perceptual prefilters give an average bitrate reduction of 20% for the same visual quality in VBR (Variable Bitrate) H.264/AVC Intra and Inter encoding. Finally, the second solution enables to improve the perceived quality in CBR (Constant Bitrate) encoding, by integrating the JND profile into the x264 codec, one of the best implementation of the H.264/AVC standard. Thus, we propose a perceptual adaptive quantization which enhances the x264 performance by improving edge information coding in low and middle bitrate applications
