Several recent studies have proposed methods to accelerate the receipt of a file by downloading its parts from different servers in parallel. The schemes suggested in most propose...
In this paper we present two optimum (in a rate-distortion ? RD ? sense) rate-control algorithms for FGS scalable video. The proposed methods, which could compliment recently prop...
This paper presents a constant quality video rate control (CQVRC) scheme for MPEG-4 FGS (fine-grain scalability) video. The proposed scheme can mitigate quality variations among ...
