Abstract—This paper presents a model and theory for streaming layered video. We model the bandwidth available to the streaming application as a stochastic process whose statistic...
Layering of protocols o ers several well-known advantages, but typically leads to performance ine ciencies. We present a model for layering, and point out where the performance pr...
A power optimized space-time code is presented for reliable delivery of layer coded multimedia data through wireless channels. Appropriate power control further improves the perfo...
Abstract--Network performance can be increased if the traditionally separated network layers are jointly optimized. Recently, network utility maximization has emerged as a powerful...
In this paper, we propose a general cross-layer optimization framework in which we explicitly consider both the heterogeneous and dynamically changing characteristics of delay-sens...
