Playout management of interactive video — an adaptive approach

Abstract

This paper examines problems associated with display of live continuous media. Under the assumption that the network cannot guarantee the required bounds on delay and jitter and the operating system scheduling is non-realtime, there is a need to accommodate the delay and jitter in the end systems in order to maintain a desirable Quality of Service (QoS). We propose a method of video playback which requires accurate estimation of display cycle time of video frames and the delay suffered by frames in the packet network. We apply various deterministic forecasting methods used in time series analysis on experimental data collected from video transmission. Suitable methods are recommended for display cycle time and delay estimation.

Resource prediction and management in active networks

“…Researchers have used this method to forecast the display cycle time (which includes decompression time plus rendering time) for compressed video data packets [11]. SES uses the following equation to calculate a new forecast value:…”

Processing resource scheduling in programmable networks

“…SES is computationally simple and an attractive method of forecasting. Some researchers have used this method to forecast the display cycle time (which includes decompression time plus rendering time) for compressed video data packets [7]. SES uses Eq.…”
