Abstract-Today, the most of the video streaming system provides quality adaptation and prefers to send their packets over HTTP. MPEG group has standardized Dynamic Adaptive HTTP Streaming (DASH) regarding this tendency on the adaptive HTTP streaming. Besides providing quality adaptation with a non-scalable codec, DASH standard also allows Scalable Video Coding (SVC) to adapt quality. Software Defined Networks (SDN) is a recently emerged networking paradigm. SDN enables to separate control and data plane of computer networks and hence provides flexibility to network operators to implement their own routing approaches. In this paper, we propose a system for increasing Quality of Experience (QoE) of SVC-DASH clients by utilizing SDN. Our experimental results show that the proposed system provides an increase in received video quality and decrease in outage duration and startup delay when compared to the performance of the client running over todays Internet implementing shortest path routing.
Özetçe -Bu bildiride, Yazılım Tanımlı Aglar (Software Defined Networks -SDN) üzerinde çalışan Dinamik Uyarlamalı HTTP Üzerinden Akışlandırma (Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP -DASH) sisteminde sunucu ile istemciler arasında yol seçimi için bir yöntem önerilmektedir. Önerilen yöntemde, DASH istemcilerinin elde ettikleri ortalama video bithızının arttırılarak istemcilerin deneyim kalitesinin yükseltilmesi, istemciler arasındaki bithızlarının farklarının azaltılarak adil bir paylaşımın saglanması için bir eniyileme modeli sunulmuştur. Benzetim sonuçları, SDN teknolojisi sayesinde, önerilen eniyileme modeline göre seçilen akışlandırma yollarının, DASH istemcilerinin elde ettikleri deneyim kalitesini (Quality of Experience -QoE) arttırdıgını göstermiştir.

In the proposed method, an optimization model is presented for increasing the Quality of Experience (QoE) in the clients by increasing the average received bitrates and for providing fairness by decreasing the difference between the bitrates received by the clients. Simulation results show that, thanks to the SDN technology, the QoE achieved by the DASH clients is improved by assigning streaming paths according to the proposed model.

DASH istemcilerinin deneyim kalitesini en iyileyebilmek amacıyla literatürde çeşitli hız uyarlama algoritmaları önerilmiştir. Bu bildiride, bantgenişliği ölçümlerine, tampon seviyesine ve her iki parametreye göre hız uyarlaması yapan, önde gelen DASH istemcilerinin performansı incelenmiştir. Bu amaçla, değişken ağ koşullarında farklı tampon boyutlarına göre deneyim kalitesi parametreleri benzetim ortamında gözlemlenmiştir. Sonuçlar, deneyim kalitesi açısından en iyi performansı sağlayabilmek için hangi tip yaklaşımın hangi koşullar altında kullanılabileceğine ışık tutmaktadır.

Various rate adaptation algorithms were proposed in the literature in order to maximize the Quality of Experience (QoE) in DASH clients. In this paper, the performances of pioneer DASH clients, which implement rate adaptation algorithm by taking the bandwidth measurements, buffer level, and both parameters into account, are examined. For this purpose, QoE parameters according to the different buffer sizes are observed under variable network conditions in a simulation environment. The results enlighten that which type of approach in which circumstances can be used in order to obtain best performance in terms of QoE.
