Service Migration from Cloud to Multi-tier Fog Nodes for Multimedia Dissemination with QoE Support.

A wide range of multimedia services is expected to be offered for mobile users via various wireless access networks. Even the integration of Cloud Computing in such networks does not support an adequate Quality of Experience (QoE) in areas with high demands for multimedia contents. Fog computing has been conceptualized to facilitate the deployment of new services that cloud computing cannot provide, particularly those demanding QoE guarantees. These services are provided using fog nodes located at the network edge, which is capable of virtualizing their functions/applications. Service migration from the cloud to fog nodes can be actuated by request patterns and the timing issues. To the best of our knowledge, existing works on fog computing focus on architecture and fog node deployment issues. In this article, we describe the operational impacts and benefits associated with service migration from the cloud to multi-tier fog computing for video distribution with QoE support. Besides that, we perform the evaluation of such service migration of video services. Finally, we present potential research challenges and trends

A reduced reference video quality assessment method for provision as a service over SDN/NFV-enabled networks

139 p.The proliferation of multimedia applications and services has generarted a noteworthy upsurge in network traffic regarding video content and has created the need for trustworthy service quality assessment methods. Currently, predominent position among the technological trends in telecommunication networkds are Network Function Virtualization (NFV), Software Defined Networking (SDN) and 5G mobile networks equipped with small cells. Additionally Video Quality Assessment (VQA) methods are a very useful tool for both content providers and network operators, to understand of how users perceive quality and this study the feasibility of potential services and adapt the network available resources to satisfy the user requirements

The Design of Basic Computer Neworking Simulation Learning using Multimedia Development Life Cycle Method based on Augmented Reality at SMKN 1 Tangerang

Augmented Reality has entered technology trends in all fields, both marketing and education, Augmented Reality media also requires users to be comfortable when interacting. SMKN 1 Tangerang organizes a distance education system with various methods, in this case the subject which is Basic Computer Networks uses mobile-based learning simulations with Augmented Reality which aims to develop students' abilities in the world of networked computers independently. This system also requires a user experience and user interface development method, namely Luther's Multimedia Development Life Cycle model because it has six stages, namely concept, design, data collection, merging, testing, and distribution, resulting in interactive applications

Towards Forecasting Business Prepaid Mobile Telecommunication Using Connectionist Model

Prepaid mobile service has become a necessity to the society and contributed success to many business. Realizing its importance, the mobile networks are moving towards higher data rates and packet oriented data transmission and mobile having more multimedia features. This fact has open end opportunities for new and more attractive mobile technologies. However, forecasting the business trend in this domain is a difficult task as it involves time dependency data. Hence, this study proposed a connectionist model as an alternative for forecasting mobile business trend. In this study, the teletraffic data was gathered from Celcom Service Control Point (SCP). Neurall network was trained with SCP data to forecast Celcom mobile business trend. This result will help Celcom in their business planning. This study has proven the capability and reliability of the connectionist model in performing the forecasting business prepaid mobile telecommunication. The performance of the back propagation model with the accuracy above 97 percent is satisfactory. The model is able to capture data from the call event records towards forecasting the trends of business prepaid mobile Telco, thus making it short and simple to use
