Abstract:
HTTP adaptive streaming (HAS) has become the technology of choice for delivering video content over the Internet. In the first part of the talk, we first describe the existing and emerging HAS service models along with all the workflows for content generation, distribution and consumption, then show that when multiple HAS clients share a network bottleneck, bad things happen. In the second part, we present a number of network-based solution approaches to future directions in this space.
