A novel solution to the reliable multicast problem is the “digital fountain” approach, in which data is encoded with an erasure protection code before transmission, and receiv...
This paper studies the streaming of packetized media from multiple servers to a client over a lossy network. In particular, we propose a client-driven rate-distortion optimal pack...
We extend a recently-proposed framework for the rate-distortion optimized transmission of packetized media. The original framework assumed that media packets each have a single arr...
Abstract—This paper addresses the problem of streaming packetized media over a lossy packet network through an intermediate proxy server to a client, in a rate-distortion optimiz...
We propose a dynamic programming algorithm for finding optimal transmission policies for a single packet in ratedistortion optimized media streaming. The algorithm relies on an op...
