In the near future, traditional narrow and fixed viewpoint video services will be replaced by high-quality panorama video services. This paper proposes a visual-attention-aware progressive region of interest (RoI) trick mode streaming service (VA-PRTS) that prioritizes video data to transmit according to the visual attention and transmits prioritized video data progressively. VA-PRTS enables the receiver to speed up the time to display without degrading the perceptual quality. For the proposed VA-PRTS, this paper defines a cutoff visual attention metric algorithm to determine the quality of the encoded video slice based on the capability of visual attention and the progressive streaming method based on the priority of RoI video data. Compared to conventional methods, VA-PRTS increases the bitrate saving by over 57% and decreases the interactive delay by over 66%, while maintaining a level of perceptual video quality. The experiment results show that the proposed VA-PRTS improves the quality of the viewer experience for interactive panoramic video streaming services. The development results show that the VA-PRTS has highly practical real-field feasibility.

This paper describes two traffic shaping methods for VBR(variable bit rate) video bit streams encoded in the MPEG-2 syntax. Difficulties in control of VBR video traffic are lessened by traffic shaping. Burstness of single layer MPEG-2 video can be reduced by performing intra-refresh in more than one consecutive frames. In two layer encoding of spatial scalability, burstness can be reduced by setting the temporal locations of GOP starting frame of a layer, differently from the other. Queueing analysis shows that these two methods outperform conventional encoding schemes in terms of temporal and semantic QoS requirements.

This paper is about MPEG-4 error resilience tools of video streaming on packet service(ex, Internet). It is need to packetization for MPEG-4 video transport by packet unit on MPEG-4 system, this paper suggest packetization method of minimizing packet error on packet service[1]. FEC(Forward Error Correction) and retransmission is usually used for recovery of packet loss, and this paper suggest applying these method to DMIF(Delivery Multimedia Integration Framework) for minimizing packet loss[2].

This paper discusses the user interface for content selection with a video-on-demand system. We suggest two modes for the selection process: active and passive. This paper analyses various video intensive user interfaces using logs of user operation to understand how users behave in each mode.

A virtual reality system using video image is designed and implemented. A participant having 2{{{{ { 1} over { 2} }}}}DOF can interact with the computer-generated virtual object using her/his full body posture and gesture in the 3D virtual environment. The system extracts the necessary participant-related information by video-based sensing, and simulates the realistic interaction such as collision detection in the virtual environment. The resulting scene obtained by compositing video image of the participant and virtual environment is updated in near real time.

For the purpose of a flexible coded video transmission over a heterogeneous network, we propose a new packetization method for coded video data. The proposed method achieves small degradation of coded picture quality in case of packet discard at the network node and does not require heavy processing load for bitrate control operation. Computer simulation results show that the bitrate reduction from 384 kb/s to 192 kb/s does not cause severe degradation in picture quality.

Traffic specification plays a crucial role in the resource reservation for video services over the packet-switching networks. The current development of QoS-guaranteed service still leaves a wide space for the selection of traffic specification. We propose a new method to estimate the traffic specification of variable-bit-rate (VBR) video for deterministic service. The method is based on the concept of empirical envelope and the delay bound. The solution shows to be simple yet it provides excellent network utilization.

In this paper, we present a hard disk drive embedded digital satellite receiver with scene change detection for video indexing. This receiver can store, retrieve and classify the broadcast data by implementing an interface between the conventional digital satellite receiver and digital storage media. Using this system, user can obtain more information for efficient video retrieval.

Although the proliferation of real-time multimedia services over the Internet might indicate its successfulness in dealing with heterogeneous environments, it is obvious, on the other hand, that the internet now has to cope with a flood of multimedia data which consumes most of network communication channels due to a great deal of video or audio streams. Therefore, for the purpose of an efficient and appropriate utilization of network resources, it requires to develop and deploy a new scalable transmission technique n consideration of respective network environment and individual clients computing power. Also, we can eliminate the waste effects of storage device and data transmission overhead in that the same video stream duplicated according to QoS. The purpose of this paper is to develop a technology that can adjust the amount of data transmitted as an MPEG video stream according to its given communication bandwidth, and technique that can reflect dynamic bandwidth while playing a video stream. For this purpose, we introduce a media scalable media decomposer working on server side, and a scalable media composer working o n a client side, and then propose a scalable transmission method and a media sender and a media receiver in consideration of dynamic QoS. Those methods proposed her can facilitate an effective use of network resources, and provide multimedia MPEG video services in real-time with respect to individual client computing environment.
