A Multimedia Terminal Supporting Adaptation for QoS Control

Abstract

This paper addresses the End-to-End Quality of Service (QoS) guarantees and control for multimedia content delivery over heterogeneous networks, with a particular focus on end user terminal perspective. We design and implement a multimedia terminal which contains several probes to monitor network conditions and end user perceptual characteristics. A series of QoS mapping between perceptions and adaptation are calculated with the parameters provided by these probes, facilitating content adaptation by any generic adaptation server or intermediate service. Such a design approach illustrates a next- generation multimedia end user system supporting End-to-End QoS control in multimedia content adaptation over a heterogeneous delivery chain.

Participatory design
Participatory design (originally co-operative design, now often co-design) is an approach to design attempting to actively involve all stakeholders (e.g. employees, partners, customers, citizens, end users) in the design process to help ensure the result meets their needs and is usable. Participatory design is an approach which is focused on processes and procedures of design and is not a design style. The term is used in a variety of fields e.g.
Design
A design is a concept of either an object, a process, or a system that is specific and, in most cases, detailed. Design refers to something that is or has been intentionally created by a thinking agent, though it is sometimes used to refer to the nature of something. The verb to design expresses the process of developing a design. In some cases, the direct construction of an object without an explicit prior plan may also be considered to be a design (such as in some artwork and craftwork).
Design methods
Design methods are procedures, techniques, aids, or tools for designing. They offer a number of different kinds of activities that a designer might use within an overall design process. Conventional procedures of design, such as drawing, can be regarded as design methods, but since the 1950s new procedures have been developed that are more usually grouped together under the name of "design methods". What design methods have in common is that they "are attempts to make public the hitherto private thinking of designers; to externalise the design process".

Towards Reliable Evaluation of Algorithms for Road Network Reconstruction from Aerial Images

Existing connectivity-oriented performance measures rank road delineation algorithms inconsistently, which makes it difficult to decide which one is best for a given application. We show that these inconsistencies stem from design flaws that make the metri ...
