“…The other solution is to provide a virtual or logical set-top box to each provider. Some of the research papers have provided good solutions for this approach, like [19] and [20]; but both of them lack an efficient QoS enabling mechanism.…”

Set-top Box (STB) has evolved from being a device just sitting on top of a TV shelf to a device providing a gateway to the Internet for a home network, receiving services from multiple content providers, and enabling and ensuring Quality of Service (QoS) for the streaming media. IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS), with its promise to provide a converged access network for multimedia service delivery (such as Triple play & Quadruple play services), has to guarantee QoS support. To enable QoS in IMS-based networks, we have designed a set-top box which provides feedback to the service provider to ensure end-to-end QoS. Our set-top box is designed to provide virtual platforms such that it can support multiple service providers. Each service provider is able to manage its own multimedia streams and ensures the desired network performance for each flow. The set-top box also works as a Home Gateway and provides end-to-end QoS support to the client nodes.

“…Packet marking for traffic differentiation, as proposed in [18] for intra-stream marking, in [26] for LAN-level priority management for VoIP, or in [14] for QoS management in wireless home networks, is also a good candidate application for performing control on the terminal end.…”

While the layered OSI model for networks provides a very clean conceptual framework for network design, certain applications are not completely indifferent to what happens at the lower layers. This is particularly true for multimedia and other real-time applications, which usually have stringent constraints on network performance in order to deliver an acceptable Quality of Experience (QoE) to the user. Several cross-layer approaches for optimizing application quality have been proposed in the literature. In this paper we show how by combining network QoS measurements and application-level knowledge, significant improvements can be made to current management solutions.

“…Some parts of the standard are included in commercial Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM) specification [16] which is widely supported by the WLAN devices on the market. WMM is a powerful means to support real-time applications such as gaming in wireless LANs [17] so we rely on it in the initial G@L system. QoS configuration of a network can be either statically configured or managed in a dynamic manner.…”

Abstract-In this paper we present a new cross-platform approach for video game delivery in wired and wireless local networks. The developed 3D streaming and video streaming approaches enable users to access video games on set top boxes and handheld devices that natively are not capable to run PC games. During the development of the distributed gaming system we have faced a number of challenges and problems posed by the hardware and network limitations. In order to solve these problems we have developed a multilevel testing methodology which is based on user assessment and technical measures for the system under development. In this paper we focus on the technical measures and instrumentation that we use for the system's performance measurement and testing. The benefits of our testing methodology are demonstrated through examples from the development and testing work.
