“…Given improvements in computer CPU performance and the expansion of the Internet, the number of applications receiving via network connections continuous media data in which audio and video change over time is rising [2,6,8,14,17]. In order to transfer such continuous media data over a network, in addition to email, files, and image data on the Web, consideration for the quality of service (QoS) in the flow between the servers that send the data and the clients that receive them is vital [1,18].…”

“…The KMR scheme described by Kanakia et al (1993b) has been shown to work quite well for a variety of traffic conditions, for example, with scene changes, addition and deletion of controlled and uncontrolled traffic sources, etc. However, it requires exact information values regarding queue occupancy for individual connections.…”

The promise of a broadband integrated service digital network has led to the design of mechanisms for efficient transport of real-time compressed video in packet switching networks. We examine feedback control for video transport in ATM networks where the available feedback is likely a single bit of information carried in the cell header. We investigate the performance of three single-bit schemes for source rate adaptation. Two were originally for congestion control of bursty data traffic and are modified to control video traffic. The third scheme conveys more information about the state of queue(s) at the bottleneck. The simulation results show that all three schemes for feedback control of VBR video streams work remarkably well. During severe network congestion, the signal quality degrades gracefully, but not uniformly across all connections. Based on insights from the initial simulations, we propose a scheme to improve the fairness of service and demonstrate its effectiveness.

“…For the ATM scenario, an important open issue is that of encoder-rate control for VBR ATM transport, taking into account UPC requirements at the Unser Network Interface UNI (Reininger et al 1994). Also, mechanisms for incorporating feedback about ATM network congestion into video-rate control have been investigated (Kanakia et al 1993). On the video decoder side, a basic issue is that of error concealment for amelioration of occasional cell loss in shared bandwidth ATM services (H. Sun et al).…”

This paper presents a systems view of video transport issues in asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) networks. Since video is a critical component of future distributed multimedia applications, we consider technical approaches necessary to realize a flexible, robust, and efficient ATM framework for video delivery. The overall systemdesign problem is discussed for a general distributed multimedia computing scenario, and key video-related design issues are identified. This is followed by a more detailed discussion of selected ATM video topics, including: (1) variable bit-rate (VBR) statistical multiplexing and dynamic usage parameter control (VBR+), (2) ATM cell-loss concealment in MPEG decoders, and (3) new transport protocols ("MTP") for video and multimedia. Supporting simulation or experimental results from ongoing research are given where available.
