Modeling adaptivity is a challenging task for two reasons: 1) adaptation is usually strongly interwoven with the general functionality of the web application, separation of concer...
When media is streamed over best-effort networks, a buffer at the client protects against playout interruptions due to variations in the data arrival rate. While the amount of pro...
Abstract-In this paper, a new preemption policy is proposed and complemented with an adaptive scheme that aims to minimize rerouting. The preemption policy combines the three main ...

— The Lagrangian technique proves to be an effective way in Rate-Distortion optimization for hybrid video coding. In this paper, an new Lagrange multiplier selection method for I...
Stochastic optimization algorithms typically use learning rate schedules that behave asymptotically as (t) = 0=t. The ensemble dynamics (Leen and Moody, 1993) for such algorithms ...
