We define a class of Guaranteed Rate (GR) scheduling algorithms. The GR class includes Virtual Clock, Packet-byPacket Generalized Processor Sharing and Self Clocked Fair Queuing....
While many researchers believe that multimedia applications are best managed with hard, real-time scheduling mechanisms, models based on application-level adaptation with relaxed s...
Abstract. We introduce the concept of Dynamic Rate Shaping, a technique to adapt the rate ofcompressed video bitstreams MPEG-1, MPEG2, H.261, as well as JPEG to dynamically varyi...
