“…The focus of recent researches of adaptive multimedia streaming is mainly on how to transcode media for numerous users instantly [1,2], how to balance the power consumption of servers and the achieved QoE of end users [3], how to use proper network protocols to deliver media contents in cloud environments [4], how to schedule virtual machines for multimedia application in the cloud [5,6]. However, the specification of mobile hardware has been rarely considered [7], especially the limited power of terminal equipment.…”

Abstract. As the technology of applying a cloud network to cloud multimedia matures, a solution to the present demand for high quality and diversified cloud multimedia can be provided. However, how to meet the users' demand for high quality and diversified cloud multimedia with handheld devices, which have limited power, is an interesting and challenging study. In this paper, a cloud based energy-efficient service architecture for adaptive multimedia streaming (EAMS-cloud) is proposed. In addition, the energy consumption of smart phones during video playback has been analyzed, based on which an optimization algorithm on energy consumption is proposed from maximizing the video quality. Several simulations are conducted, and the results turn out that the proposed approach can effectively reduce the power consumption of the terminal device.

“…Peer‐to‐peer (P2P) networking has improved the world of networking by allowing the users to obtain data from different and multiple peers instead of requesting a single server. In P2P media streaming systems , each peer can play the role of supplier and forward the required data to the requesters. In virtual environment (VE) and augmented reality (AR) environments , a given user can request the data from peers that are within the same area and that have therefore a similar view of the VE.…”

Summary The recent advances in technology and mobile computing led to the rapid growth of networked 3D streaming applications. The emerging services can involve augmented reality, virtual environment walkthrough, multiplayer gaming just to mention a few. Because of the limited network bandwidth of the client‐server approach, research works are now turning toward mobile ad hoc networks‐based streaming, where the resources of each peer are used during the streaming service. Peer‐to‐peer technologies are considering the solution to adapt for scalable applications. Yet, supplying partner selection and 3D data delivery are still significant challenges to face because of the dynamic wireless environment that causes link breakages, high packet loss, an adverse impact on the quality of the 3D media, and a low user satisfaction. In this paper, we propose a supplying partner selection technique coupled with a content delivery technique for peer‐to‐peer 3D streaming over thin mobile devices. Our proposed protocol, which we refer to as MULTIPLY, considers multihop suppliers in order to alleviate the load on the server and uses the signal strength measurement to analyze the wireless link when sending back the 3D data. Given the high dynamicity of the network due to the mobility of the users, the streaming can be greatly affected. We therefore study the impact of the mobility on MULTIPLY. The performance evaluation of our protocol obtained using an extensive set of simulation experiments is then reported. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Due to the rapid improvements of wireless technologies and mobile devices'capabilities, we are witnessing an important growth in applications using thin mobile devices. Augmented reality took advantage of the enhancement of thin mobile devices, which led to the emergence of Mobile Augmented Reality (MAR). Given that thin mobile devices can not have the entire virtual environment (VE) stored locally, multimedia streaming has been designed and is widely used nowadays in MAR. Most of the MAR systems apply the conventional client-server approach, that may suffer from delay and congestion, which affects the system performance. P2P-based multimedia streaming is considered, therefore, an alternative approach. Although mobile P2P based video streaming received a great deal of attention, mobile P2P based 3D streaming was not the choice of designed systems, mainly due to the limited mobile device's capabilities. Moreover, the main challenge that needs to be taken care of when designing mobile P2P based 3D streaming systems, is the selection of a supplying partner. A few studies have proposed supplying partner protocols for mobile P2P-based 3D streaming. However, they did not take into account the device's energy that is considered an important constraint when dealing with 3D streaming. In this paper, we propose an efficient energy-aware supplying partner protocol for mobile P2P networks based 3D streaming. A new load estimator is defined that takes into consideration two factors: the node's remaining energy and its number of served requests. We therefore propose the integration of an energy-aware criterion into the supplying partner selection in order to reduce the generation of overloaded nodes, and their energy dissipation. We then report on the performance evaluation we have obtained to evaluate our protocol using an extensive set of simulation experiments.
