AdapComm
Roshan Thapliya, Chaoxin Hu · 2013
In this article, we propose AdaptMetric Communication (AdapComm), an end-to-end bandwidth estimation and allocation methodology putting emphasis on Quality of Experience at the user side. AdapComm dynamically samples the connection by sending dummy probing-TCP packets and derives the bandwidth online. This information is then sent to the server to adaptively change the data transmission to maintain user experience even in highly fluctuating networks, such as wireless connections. In future office-works, the usage of multimedia in mobile environments will be the norm, thus, we demonstrate the implementation of smooth, stall-free video streaming based on this scheme for enhanced user experience.
