“…The ReLate2 metric is defined by the product of the average data packet latency and the percent loss that the transport protocol provides + 1 (to account for 0% loss) which implies an order of magnitude increase for 9% loss. Based on previous research which evaluated percent data loss for multimedia applications (Bai, 2006(Bai, , 2007Ngatman, 2008), this adjustment is relevant for multimedia data such as the high-resolution 3-D health data in our SCAAL example. For example, if for a given protocol the average packet latency is 1,000 μs and the percent loss is 0 (i.e., no packets lost) then the ReLate2 value is 1,000.…”
