In recent years, the management and processing of so-called data streams has become a topic of active research in several fields of computer science such as, e.g., distributed sys...
We present an improved, prescient, scheme to deliver pre-encoded video streams at very low latency. We dynamically manage the prediction dependency for a group of packets using a ...
—In this paper we present a scalable and distributed system for image retrieval based on visual features and annotated text. This system is the core of the SAPIR project. Its arc...
—Future 4G cellular networks are featured with high data rate and improved coverage, which will enable realtime video multicast and broadcast services. Scalable video coding is v...
Controlling the quality of collaborative multimedia sessions, that deploy multiple media streams, is a challenging problem. In this paper, we present a framework for achieving qua...
