I.INTRODUCTION

• Recently there have been many studies on how to improve the service quality of mobile video streaming on two aspects:

ScalabilityAdaptability

4

Scalability:• Mobile video streaming services should

support a wide spectrum of mobile devices.• Different video resolutions• Different computing powers• Different wireless links (like 3G and LTE)

5

Adaptability:author have to adjust the video bit rate adapting to the currently time-varying available link bandwidth of each mobile user.

6

AMES-Cloud constructs a private agent for each mobile user in cloud computing environments, which is used by its two main parts:

• AMoV (adaptive mobile video streaming)

• ESoV (efficient social video sharing)

7

AMES-Cloud supports distributing video streams efficiently by facilitating a 2-tier structure:

• First tier is a content delivery network

• Second tier is a data center

A. Adaptive Video Streaming Techniques

There are mainly two types of adaptive streaming techniques, depending on whether the adaptivity is controlled by the client or the server.

• Microsoft’s Smooth Streaming• Adobe and Apple

10

B. Mobile Cloud Computing Techniques

• The cloud computing has been well positioned to provide video streaming services, especially in the wired Internet because of its scalability and capability.

B. Adaptability With Monitoring on Link Quality

• The link quality monitor at mobile client keeps tracking on metrics including signal strength, packet round-trip-time (RTT), jitter and packet loss with a certain duty cycle.

• And the client will periodically report to the subVC.

• Hereby we define the cycle period for the reporting as the “time window”.

15

• Suppose sequence number of current time window is i , the predicted bandwidth can be estimated by:

V. ESOV: EFFICIENT SOCIAL VIDEO SHARING

A. Social Content Sharing author classify the social activities in current

popular SNSs into three kinds, regarding the impact of the activities and the potential reacting priority from the point of view of the recipient:

• Subscription• Direct recommendation• Public sharing

B. Prefetching Levels

VI. IMPLEMENTATION AND EVALUATION

VII. CONCLUSION

• Adaptivemobile video streaming and sharing framework.

• Efficiently stores videos in the clouds (VC)• Utilizes cloud computing to construct private

agent (subVC)• For each mobile user to try to offer “non-

terminating” video

24

• Further seek to provide “non-buffering” experience of video streaming.

• The focus of this paper is to verify how cloud computing can improve the transmission adaptability and prefetching for mobile users.

• As one important future work, we will carry out large-scale implementation and with serious consideration on energy and price cost.
