This talk starts by defining what is Quality of Experience. It then provides an overview of state of the art in Quality of Experience in multimedia systems. It will finally conclude by presenting challenges and trends that need to be further addressed. ...
We consider streaming video content over an overlay network of peer nodes. Each of the nodes employs a mesh-pull mechanism to organize the download of data units from its neighbours. We propose a novel algorithm for constructing the distribution overlay, w ...
Today's consumer electronics based on a large variety of time-keeping and frequency reference applications is based on quartz-crystal oscillators, because of their excellent performances in terms of quality factor, thermal and frequency stability. However, ...
This paper reports the low power operation of Vibrating Body Field Effect Transistors as active resonators for communication applications. For the first time we report active resonators operating at 2MHz and 20MHz with power consumption less than 100μW and ...

In this paper, a new method for the detection of queue lengths at traffic signals is described. Based on conventional probe vehicle data and implementing an extremely flexible data fusion approach for the integration of nearly arbitrary additional traffic ...
Gossip-based information dissemination protocols are considered easy to deploy, scalable and resilient to network dynamics. They are also considered highly flexible, namely tunable at will to increase their robustness and adapt to churn. So far however, the ...
Wireless community networks that operate in the unlicensed spectrum have emerged as a low-cost alternative for providing high-speed wireless data services. By using WiFi access points that are provided and managed by community members, wireless community n ...
We design a novel class of space-time codes, called linear diversity-embedding space-time block codes (LDE-STBC) where a high-rate STBC is linearly superimposed on a high-diversity STBC without requiring channel knowledge at the transmitter. In applying th ...
We consider the problem of mesh-pull based video broadcast in peer-to-peer networks. We propose a novel algorithm for constructing the distribution overlay, where peers are arranged in neighborhoods that exhibit similar latency values from the origin media ...
We investigate the problem of collaborative video streaming in overlay networks. We exploit path and source diversity, as well as basic processing capabilities of network nodes in order to increase the overall throughput and improve the video quality at th ...
