An Efficient Transport Protocol for delivery of Multimedia An Efficient Transport Protocol for delivery of Multimedia Content in Wireless Grids
A grid computing system is designed for solving complicated scientific and
commercial problems effectively,whereas mobile computing is a traditional
distributed system having computing capability with mobility and adopting
wireless communications. Media and Entertainment fields can take advantage from
both paradigms by applying its usage in gaming applications and multimedia data
management. Multimedia data has to be stored and retrieved in an efficient and
effective manner to put it in use. In this paper, we proposed an application
layer protocol for delivery of multimedia data in wireless girds i.e.
multimedia grid protocol (MMGP). To make streaming efficient a new video
compression algorithm called dWave is designed and embedded in the proposed
protocol. This protocol will provide faster, reliable access and render an
imperceptible QoS in delivering multimedia in wireless grid environment and
tackles the challenging issues such as i) intermittent connectivity, ii) device
heterogeneity, iii) weak security and iv) device mobility.Comment: 20 pages, 15 figures, Peer Reviewed Journa
Performance of Caching-Based D2D Video Distribution with Measured Popularity Distributions
On-demand video accounts for the majority of wireless data traffic. Video
distribution schemes based on caching combined with device-to-device (D2D)
communications promise order-of-magnitude greater spectral efficiency for video
delivery, but hinge on the principle of `concentrated demand distributions.'
This paper presents, for the first time, the analysis and evaluations of the
throughput--outage tradeoff of such schemes based on measured cellular demand
distributions. In particular, we use a dataset with more than 100 million
requests from the BBC iPlayer, a popular video streaming service in the U.K.,
as the foundation of the analysis and evaluations. We present an achievable
scaling law based on the practical popularity distribution, and show that such
scaling law is identical to those reported in the literature. We find that also
for the numerical evaluations based on a realistic setup, order-of-magnitude
improvements can be achieved. Our results indicate that the benefits promised
by the caching-based D2D in the literature could be retained for cellular
networks in practice.Comment: Submitted to IEEE Globecom 201
Caching-Aided Collaborative D2D Operation for Predictive Data Dissemination in Industrial IoT
Industrial automation deployments constitute challenging environments where
moving IoT machines may produce high-definition video and other heavy sensor
data during surveying and inspection operations. Transporting massive contents
to the edge network infrastructure and then eventually to the remote human
operator requires reliable and high-rate radio links supported by intelligent
data caching and delivery mechanisms. In this work, we address the challenges
of contents dissemination in characteristic factory automation scenarios by
proposing to engage moving industrial machines as device-to-device (D2D)
caching helpers. With the goal to improve reliability of high-rate
millimeter-wave (mmWave) data connections, we introduce the alternative
contents dissemination modes and then construct a novel mobility-aware
methodology that helps develop predictive mode selection strategies based on
the anticipated radio link conditions. We also conduct a thorough system-level
evaluation of representative data dissemination strategies to confirm the
benefits of predictive solutions that employ D2D-enabled collaborative caching
at the wireless edge to lower contents delivery latency and improve data
acquisition reliability
