Network performance evaluation using frame size and quality traces of single-layer and two-layer video: A tutorial

Seeling, Patrick, Reisslein, Martin, Kulapala, Beshan·2004·IEEE Communications Surveys & Tutorials

Abstract

Video traffic is widely expected to account for a large portion of the traffic in future wireline and wireless networks, as multimedia applications are becoming increasingly popular. Consequently, the performance evaluation of networking architectures, protocols, and mechanisms for video traffic becomes increasingly important. Video traces, which give the sizes, deadlines, and qualities of the individual video frames in a video sequence, have been emerging as convenient video characterizations for networking studies. In this tutorial we give an introduction to the use of video traces in networking studies. First we give a brief overview of digital video and its encoding and playout. Then we present a library of traces of single- and two-layer encoded video. We discuss the statistical properties of the traces and the resulting implications for the transport of video over networks. Finally we discuss the factors that need to be considered when using video traces in network performance evaluations. In particular, we introduce performance metrics that quantify the quality of the delivered video. We outline a procedure for generating video load for network simulations from the traces, and discuss how to meaningfully analyze the outcomes of these simulations.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
