SplitStream: High-Bandwidth Multicast in Cooperative Environments

by Miguel Castro, Peter Druschel, Anne-Marie Kermarrec, Animesh Nandi, Antony Rowstron, Atul Singh - SOSP '03 , 2003
"... In tree-based multicast systems, a relatively small number of interior nodes carry the load of forwarding multicast messages. This works well when the interior nodes are highly available, d d cated infrastructure routers but it poses a problem for application-level multicast in peer-to-peer systems. ..."

. SplitStreamadV esses this problem by striping the content across a forest of interior-nodno# sjoint multicast trees that d stributes the forward ng load among all participating peers. For example, it is possible to construct efficient SplitStream forests in which each peer contributes only as much

Receiver-driven Layered Multicast

by Steven McCanne, Van Jacobson, Martin Vetterli , 1996
"... State of the art, real-time, rate-adaptive, multimedia applications adjust their transmission rate to match the available network capacity. Unfortunately, this source-based rate-adaptation performs poorly in a heterogeneous multicast environment because there is no single target rate — the conflicti ..."

Error Control and Concealment for Video Communication -- A Review

by Yao Wang, Qin-fan Zhu - PROCEEDINGS OF THE IEEE , 1998
"... The problem of error control and concealment in video communication is becoming increasingly important because of the growing interest in video delivery over unreliable channels such as wireless networks and the Internet. This paper reviews the techniques that have been developed for error control a ..."

streams. Error concealment by postprocessing refers to operations at the decoder to recover the damaged areas based on characteristics of image and video signals. Finally, interactive error concealment covers techniques that are dependent on a dialog between the source and destination. Both current

Scalable Feedback Control for Multicast Video Distribution in the Internet

by Jean-chrysostome Bolot, Thierry Turletti, Ian Wakeman , 1994
"... We describe a mechanism for scalable control of multicast continuous media streams. The mechanism uses a novel probing mechanism to solicit feedback information in a scalable manner and to estimate the number of receivers. In addition, it separates the congestion signal from the congestion control a ..."

Bayeux: An architecture for scalable and fault-tolerant wide-area data dissemination

by Shelley Q. Zhuang, Ben Y. Zhao, Anthony D. Joseph, Randy H. Katz, John D. Kubiatowicz , 2001
"... The demand for streaming multimedia applications is growing at an incredible rate. In this paper, we propose Bayeux, an efficient application-level multicast system that scales to arbitrarily large receiver groups while tolerating failures in routers and network links. Bayeux also includes specific ..."

Tcp-like congestion control for layered multicast data transfer

by Lorenzo Vicisano, Jon Crowcroft, Luigi Rizzo , 1998
"... Abstract—We present a novel congestion control algorithm suitable for use with cumulative, layered data streams in the MBone. Our algorithm behaves similarly to TCP congestion control algorithms, and shares bandwidth fairly with other instances of the protocol and with TCP flows. It is entirely rece ..."

Bullet: High Bandwidth Data Dissemination Using an Overlay Mesh

by Dejan Kostic, Adolfo Rodriguez, Jeannie Albrecht, Amin Vahdat , 2003
"... In recent years, overlay networks have become an effective alternative to IP multicast for efficient point to multipoint communication across the Internet. Typically, nodes self-organize with the goal of forming an efficient overlay tree, one that meets performance targets without placing undue burd ..."

Applications include large-file transfers and real-time multimedia streaming. For these applications, we argue that an overlay mesh, rather than a tree, can

Scheduling Policies for an On-Demand Video Server with Batching

by Asit Dan, Dinkar Sitaram, Perwez Shahabuddin - in Proc. of ACM Multimedia , 1994
