We investigate two important problems in media delivery via active network agents. First, we consider streaming multiple video assets over a shared backbone network through an intermediate proxy-server to a set of receiving clients. The proxy is located at ...
The paper studies the benefits of multi-path content delivery from a rate-distortion efficiency perspective. We develop an optimization framework for computing transmission schedules for streaming media packets over multiple network paths that maximize the ...
In this paper, we describe a multimodal data flow controller capable of reading most multichannel sound cards and web cameras, synchronising media streams, being a server to stream captured media over TCP in raw format, being a client to receive media stre ...
Network coding has recently emerged as an alternative to traditional routing algorithms in communication systems. In network coding, the network nodes can combine the packets they receive before forwarding them to the neighbouring nodes. Intensive research ...
In this paper, we introduce a novel algorithm for rate allocation in media stream- ing P2P networks where multimedia contents are distributed among network members and streamed toward any requesting peer. The proposed algorithm is based on ant-colony optim ...
The obvious recent advances in areas such as video compression and network architectures allow for the deployment of novel video distribution applications. These have the potential to provide ubiquitous media access to end users. In recent years, applicati ...
This paper addresses the problem of efficiently delivering a layered media stream from multiple senders to a single receiver, over channels that present correlated packet loss patterns. Using a digital fountain approach, the performance of a distributed st ...
With the latest developments in video coding technology and fast deployment of end-user broadband internet connections, real-time media applications become increasingly interesting for both private users and businesses. However, the internet remains a best ...

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 ...
