Optimal Resource Allocation for Distributed Video Communication

商品描述

While most books on the subject focus on resource allocation in just one type of network, this book is the first to examine the common characteristics of multiple distributed video communication systems. Comprehensive and systematic, Optimal Resource Allocation for Distributed Video Communication presents a unified optimization framework for resource allocation across these systems.

The book examines the techniques required for optimal resource allocation over Internet, wireless cellular networks, wireless ad hoc networks, and wireless sensor networks. It provides you with the required foundation in video communications, including Peer-to-Peer (P2P) networks, wireless networks, and visual sensor networks.

Whether you're in industry or academia, you'll value how the book outlines current challenges facing the field and outlines a general solution framework for addressing these challenges. From problem formulations and theoretical analysis to practical algorithms, it facilitates the comprehensive understanding required to achieve optimized video and multimedia communications.





  • Presents the resource allocation techniques for scalable video communications over Internet or wireless networks


  • Examines two resource allocation problems--distributed throughput maximization for scalable P2P Video-on-Demand (VoD) systems and streaming capacity for P2P VoD systems


  • Outlines an optimal prefetching framework for reducing seeking delays in P2P VoD applications


  • Examines distributed optimization techniques for unicast and multicast video streaming over wireless ad hoc networks


  • Considers the network lifetime maximization problem in wireless visual sensor networks




Detailing methods that can immediately improve the performance of your video communication systems, this book presents multiple applications of optimal resource allocation. For each of the applications,

雖然大多數關於此主題的書籍僅專注於單一類型網路中的資源分配，但本書是首部探討多個分散式視頻通信系統共同特徵的著作。《最佳資源分配於分散式視頻通信》提供了一個統一的優化框架，用於這些系統之間的資源分配。

本書探討了在互聯網、無線蜂窩網路、無線臨時網路和無線感測器網路上進行最佳資源分配所需的技術。它為您提供了視頻通信所需的基礎知識，包括對等網路（Peer-to-Peer, P2P）、無線網路和視覺感測器網路。

無論您身處於產業界或學術界，您都會重視本書如何概述當前該領域面臨的挑戰，並提出解決這些挑戰的一般解決框架。從問題的公式化和理論分析到實用算法，本書促進了達成優化視頻和多媒體通信所需的全面理解。

- 提供可擴展視頻通信在互聯網或無線網路上的資源分配技術
- 探討兩個資源分配問題——可擴展的P2P視頻點播（Video-on-Demand, VoD）系統的分散式吞吐量最大化和P2P VoD系統的串流容量
- 概述一個最佳預取框架，以減少P2P VoD應用中的尋找延遲
- 探討無線臨時網路上單播和多播視頻串流的分散式優化技術
- 考慮無線視覺感測器網路中的網路壽命最大化問題

本書詳細介紹了可以立即改善您的視頻通信系統性能的方法，並展示了最佳資源分配的多種應用。對於每個應用，
