최근 Full-HD보다 4배에서 16배 이상 선명한 초고화질 멀티미디어 영상을 볼 수 있는 UHD TV가 인기를 끌고 있다. 또한 휴대용 단말의 카메라를 이용하여 UHD 영상을 촬영하고 저장하고 있다. 그러나 이러한 초고화질 멀티미디어 영상을 스트리밍하고 재생하기에는 저사양 PC 단말이나 모바일 단말은 자원부족으로 서비스를 제대로 받을 수 없다. 본 논문에서는 클라우드 기반의 초고화질 멀티미디어 스트리밍 서비스 장치를 이용하여 저사양의 단말에서도 고품질 멀티미디어 스트리밍 서비스를 제공하기 위하여 클라우드 가상 데스크탑 서비스 기술을 이용하여 해결한다. 또한, 본 논문에서는 클라이언트 단말과의 네트워크 환경을 고려하여 다양한 비트율을 가진 영상으로 서비스를 제공함으로써 사용자에게 높은 QoE(Quality of Experience)를 제공하는 것을 보여준다.

As recent fusion industry and ubiquitous technology have grown fast, network contents, which require high load, are provided in various infrastructures and facilities such as u-city and smart phones. Therefore, it is anticipated that the playback quality of multimedia compared to network loads degrades dramatically due to the drastic increment of real-time reference of conventional high load contents (eg. multimedia data). In this paper, we improved the method of the traffic assignment based on MPP which elevated the playback quality of multimedia by assigning discriminately the possible traffic of MMS with TP coefficients. When the TP coefficient which combines content preference with media preference was applied to a real-time traffic assignment scheduler, the simulation results showed that the multimedia playback stream was assigned within the possible traffic of a server. The real-time scheduling algorithm was improved by using the TP coefficient that combines the time-dependent image contents and the weighted value of media preference. It was observed from the experiment that the loss of the possible traffic decreases to 3.91% and 3.88% for three and four clients respectively.

The Internet Video Coding (IVC) standard is due to be published by Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG) for various Internet applications such as internet broadcast streaming. IVC aims at three things fundamentally: 1) forming IVC patents under a free of charge license, 2) reaching comparable compression performance to AVC/H.264 constrained Baseline Profile (cBP), and 3) maintaining computational complexity for feasible implementation of real-time encoding and decoding. MPEG experts have worked diligently on the intellectual property rights issues for IVC, and they reported that IVC already achieved the second goal (compression performance) and even showed comparable performance to even AVC/H.264 High Profile (HP). For the complexity issue, however, there has not been thorough analysis on IVC decoder. In this paper, we analyze the IVC decoder in view of the time complexity by evaluating running time. Through the experimental results, IVC is 3.6 times and 3.1 times more complex than AVC/H.264 cBP under constrained set (CS) 1 and CS2, respectively. Compared to AVC/H.264 HP, IVC is 2.8 times and 2.9 times slower in decoding time under CS1 and CS2, respectively. The most critical tool to be improved for lightweight IVC decoder is motion compensation process containing a resolution-adaptive interpolation filtering process.

Recently, many researches into distributed processing on Internet, and multimedia data processing have been performed. Rapid and convenient multimedia services supplied with high quality and high speed are to be needed. In this paper, we design and implement clip-based video retrieval system on the Web enviroment in real-time. Our system consists of the content-based indexing system supporting convenient services for video content providers, and the Web-based retrieval system in order to make it easy and various information retrieval for users in the Web. Three important methods are used in the content-based indexing system, key frame extracting method by dividing video data, clip file creation method by clustering related information, and video database construction method by using clip unit. In Web-based retrieval system, retrieval method ny using a key word, two dimension browsing method of key frame, and real-time display method of the clip are used. In this paper, we design and implement the system that supports real-time display method of the clip are used. In this paper, we design and implement the system that supports real-time retrieval for video clips on Web environment and provides the multimedia service in stability. The proposed methods show a usefulness of video content providing, and provide an easy method for serching intented video content.

In this paper, we propose a buffer management scheme suitable for interactive multimedia services. We consider a typical delay optimization environment so that receiver buffer lengths vary according to the round trip time estimation. In this environment, we propose an optimization technique for minimizing the loss of information that may occur when a reduced buffer length forces I/P/B frames in the buffer to drop. We modeled our problem as a Knapsack Problem for which we used dynamic programing in order to find an approximate solution. The proposed technique is compared with the existing buffer management techniques. Through simulation studies, we found that our approach could increase PSNR, which is important to video quality.

최근 무선 네트워크 서비스의 수요가 증가함에 따라 낮은 비용, 간편한 설치 그리고 높은 대역폭 특성을 가지는 무선랜 (WLAN)을 기반으로 한 사내 네트워크 구성이 학교 및 기업을 중심으로 증가하고 있다. 이로 인해 사내 네트워크를 통한 랩탑 (Laptop), 넷북 (Notebook), 스마트 폰 (Smart Phone), 그리고 UMPC (Ultra Mobile Personal Computer)등 휴대용 단말을 이용한 스트리밍 서비스의 수요가 증가하고 있다. 하지만 무선랜 환경은 사용자 이동에 의해 핸드오버가 발생할 경우, 이동할 대상 네트워크의 혼잡 상태를 고려하지 않는다. 따라서 이동할 네트워크에 빠르게 적응하지 못함으로써 패킷 손실에 의한 서비스의 불연속성 문제가 발생할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 핸드오버 이전에 이동 대상 네트워크의 혼잡 상태를 인지하여 전송률을 조절함으로써, 스트리밍 서비스의 불연속성 문제를 해결하는 적응적인 스트리밍 시스템을 설계 및 구현하였다. 제안하는 시스템은 핸드오버 이전에 이동 대상 네트워크의 가용대역폭을 측정하여 혼잡 상태를 인지하고, 측정한 가용대역폭 값을 기반으로 전송하는 프레임의 수를 우선순위에 따라 차등적으로 조절하여 전송률을 조절하였다.

H.264 is the prominent video coding standard in various applications such as real-time streaming and digital multimedia broadcasting, since it provides enhanced compression performance, error resilience tools, and network adaptation. Compression efficiency of H.264 has been improved, however, it requires more computing and memory access than traditional methods. In this paper we proposed adaptive intra fast algorithm for real-time video surveillance system reducing the encoding complexity of H264/A VC. For this aim, temporal interrelationship between macroblock in the previous and the current frame is used to decide the encoding mode of macroblock fast. As a result, though video quality was deteriorated a little, less than 0.04dB, and bit rate was somewhat increased in suggested method, however, proposed method improved encoding time significantly and, in particular, encoding time of an image with little changes of neighboring background such as surveillance video was more shortened than traditional methods.

Scalable video coding (SVC) encodes multimedia data into a base layer and enhancement layers to cope with variable network conditions in an adaptive manner. In SVC, enhancement layers can be decoded only when the base layer is successively received. However, existing works on SVC transmissions in IEEE 802.11 WLANs do not fully investigate this characteristic and thus their performance can be degraded. In this paper, we propose a SVC-aware retransmission (SAR) scheme in IEEE 802.11 WLANs. The SAR scheme applies different retransmission policies for base and enhancement layers by obtaining the optimal number of frames to be retransmitted. As a result, the SAR scheme can reduce unnecessary retransmissions and minimize the transmission latency. Simulation results demonstrate that the SAR scheme can reduce unnecessary data transmission by 12.6% and the transmission latency by 6.6~19.1% compared to conventional retransmission schemes.

Currently, the efficient adaptive video streaming services and coding techniques are required to ensure quality of service (QoS) in diverse multimedia environments. To maintain optimal video quality in these environments, it is required to support scalable video coding (SVC) technique and proper QoS metric methods. In this paper, we propose a new quality metric that takes in to the temporal, the SNR, the spatial scalability on SVC. Experimental results shows that proposed method has a higher correlation with the subjective quality. We expect that the proposed metric plays an important role in deciding the coding parameter to optimize the quality of the SVC based video.

The objective of MPEG Media Transport (MMT), which is on going standard, is to develop efficient delivery of media over packet based networks in an adaptive, progressive, download/streaming fashion over various IP based networks, including terrestrial, satellite and cable broadcast networks. In this paper we introduce utilization of signal strength information based on Cross Layer Design(CLD) to efficient multimedia delivery over wireless network in which in practice the wireless conditions can vary significantly. Many recent studies have shown that a significant improvement in wireless video throughput can be achieved by utilizing signal strength information on CLD [1][2]. Despite of its usefulness, however, it was difficult to employ signal strength information in rate adaptation applications due to different representation of signal strength information for each underlying wireless network. To that end, we proposed syntax and semantics of signal strength information in such a way that the information can be interpreted in the unified way. The proposed signal strength information was proposed for the MMT standardization.
