Peer-To-Peer Video Streaming

By Bernd Girod and Eric Setton

Book Overview

Peer-to-Peer Video Streaming describes novel solutions to enhance video quality, increase robustness to errors, and reduce end-to-end latency in video streaming systems. The authors are leading Researchers from Stanford University. This book will be of use to both academics and professionals as it presents thorough coverage and solutions for current issues with Video Streaming and Peer-to-Peer architectures. The book provides an overview of today's state-of-the art video streaming technology. It presents adaptive video coding and streaming techniques for performance enhancement of conventional client-server systems and P2P multicast. There is focus on throughput-limited environments where congestion often hampers interactivity and fast response times, and results derived from experiments are carried out over large-scale simulated peer networks. The detailed appendix incorporates various additional experiments.
