Recently, HAS (HTTP Adaptive Streaming) has been the subject of much attention to improve the QoE (Quality of Experience). In a high latency network, HAS degrades the QoE due to the lost RTT cycle since it replies with a response of one segment to the request of one segment. The server-push based HAS schemes of downloading multiple segments in one request cause QoE degradation due to the buffer underflow. In this paper, we propose a VSSDS (Video Streaming Scheme based on Dynamic Server-push) scheme to improve the QoE in a high latency network. The proposed scheme adjust video quality by estimating available bandwidth and determine the number of segments to be downloaded for each segment request cycle. Through the simulation, the proposed scheme not only improves the average video bitrate but also alleviates the buffer underflow.

The intelligent PVR(Personal Video Recorder) is an enhanced PVR that provides viewers with some advanced features as well as pause, instant replay, search and skip forward found in conventional PVRs. By embedding a home server into a PVR, it is possible for an intelligent PVR to provide a powerful web-based management user interface constructed using HTML, graphics and other features common to web-browsers. When applied to other embedded systems, web technologies offer graphical user interfaces which are user-friendly, inexpensive, cross-platform and network-ready. It is the purpose of this paper to introduce implementation of intelligent PVR which is control by internet. We present the architecture of an home- server with a simple but powerful web-based network interconnection.

Most Embedded Web Camera Server products currently deployed on the market adopt JPEG for compression of video data continuously acquired from the cameras. However, JPEG does not efficiently compress the continuous video stream, and is not appropriate for the Internet where the transmission bandwidth is not guaranteed. In our previous work, we presented the result of designing and implementing an embedded web camera streaming server using MPEG4 codec. But the server in our previous work did not show good performance since one CPU had to both compress and process the network transmission. In this paper, we present our efforts to improve our previous result by using dual CPUs, where DSP is employed for data compression and StrongARM is used for network processing. Better performance has been observed, but it is found that still more time is needed to optimize the performance.

In this paper, we designed and implemented a personal VOD server using multi-thread for the real-time services of video data to the users. The system consists of service manager, disk manager, and network manager. The service manager controls the user admission to the system using the VBR(Variable Bit Rate) characteristics of MPEG (Moving Picture Experts Group) video data. The disk manager provides the functions for VCR-like operations. The disk manager reads blocks from the disk by the size of GOP(Group of Pictures) and buffers the data to the user's thread. The network manager uses TCP/IP for the communication between the server and the client. The communication starts from the client and the VOD server must respond to this request. The implemented personal VOD system shows an acceptable performance.

This paper presents a PC cluster-based distributed video on demand (VOD) server that minimizes the load of the interconnection network by adopting channel bonding-based MVIA and the interval cache algorithm Video data is distributed to the disks of each server node of the distributed VOD server and each server node receives the data through the interconnection network and sends it to clients. The load of the interconnection network increases because of the large volume of video data transferred. We adopt two techniques to reduce the load of the interconnection network. First, an Msupporting channel bonding technique is adopted for the interconnection network. n which is a user-level communication protocol that reduces the overhead of the TCP/IP protocol in cluster systems, minimizes the time spent in communicating. We increase the bandwidth of the interconnection network using the channel bonding technique with MThe channel bonding technique expands the bandwidth by sending data concurrently through multiple network cards. Second, the interval cache reduces traffic on the interconnection network by caching the video data transferred from the remote disks in main memory Experiments using the distributed VOD server of this paper showed a maximum performance improvement of $30\%$ compared with a distributed VOD server without channel bonding-based MVIA and the interval cache, when used with a four-node PC cluster.

Linux cluster Server makes a high performance PC cluster system, and provides scalablity and availability as compared with an expensive single server. In this paper, we design and implement a VOD streaming service system to serve video and audio streaming services on the Linux cluster server. Our Streaming server supports the MS Window Media Format based on the RTSP streaming protocol.

This paper describes the design and implementation of a network-adaptive N-screen game system to be used in cloud computing. The system we are considering needs to generate game video in a cloud server and transmit the video to multiple game devices over an in-home wireless network via a home game server. It is difficult to support multiple screens which have different resolutions with a single bitstream of game video. Therefore, we developed a new network-adaptive game-video extraction and transmission method using (1) scalable video coding and (2) Raptor code techniques. The simulation, conducted with real game-video, verified the efficiency of the proposed video streaming system.

In this paper, we designed and implemented a mobile video transmission device with 1080i resolution and 30fps frame rate using wireless multi-access technologies. The video acquisition delay time of 16us and jitter of 21ms for this equipment were obtained, respectively. The device is designed to access various communication networks. In order to evaluate the performance of its video transmission capability, a server and monitoring viewer are implemented. In the performance test using LTE network, 211ms delay time was obtained at 3Mbps transmission. Rendering of 1fps frame rate at the 265kbps transmission was confirmed for the transmission test using Inmarsat network.

This paper discusses the design and implementation of a video server which uses tertiary device, such as magneto-optical jukebox or tape library, as a source of media archiving. In order to handle the tertiary device in the framework of disk-based stream service model, a sophisticated streaming model is required for server and it should consider the device-specific performance characteristics of tertiary storage. We have carefully designed the streaming mechanism for server whose key functionalities include stream scheduling, disk caching and admission control. The proposed system has been implemented on Windows 2000 platform which is equipped with a magneto-optical jukebox. The design principles of the server are validated with the experiments and the performance characteristics is analyzed.

In this paper, we implement a video conference system, which connects remote PCs. Each system receives video and audio data from devices attached to a PC and compresses them by using CODECs. It sends the compressed data to the opponent. Compared to the existing ones, the proposed system can combine two video streams into a new one. Thus, additional video data can be transferred to the opponent during a call.
