TLDR
In this article, a multimedia streaming apparatus and a method by which multimedia data is adaptively transmitted according to the conditions of a network are provided. But the authors focus on adaptive multimedia streaming corresponding to the bandwidth change of the network can be performed without imposing an additional burden on a server.
Abstract: 
A multimedia streaming apparatus and method by which multimedia data is adaptively transmitted according to the conditions of a network are provided. The multimedia streaming apparatus streams multimedia data corresponding to a predetermined QoS level in response to a parsing result of metadata corresponding to multimedia data intended to be provided and information on a network bandwidth measured by a client which receives the multimedia data. Accordingly, adaptive multimedia streaming corresponding to the bandwidth change of the network can be performed without imposing an additional burden on a server.

Context aware data presentation

Billy Alvarado, +2 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a context aware data application presents information about a first user's contact means and methodologies, which allows the users seeking to make contact to quickly take an action that is expected given the context of the first user as presenting the most relevant data allows the contacting users to take actions quickly.

Continuously adaptive digital video compression system and method for a web streamer

William N. Guetz, +2 more
TL;DR: In this article, a cost effective continuously adaptive digital video system and method for compressing color video data for moving images is described, which describes capturing an analog video frame and digitizing the image into a preferred source input format for compression using a combination of unique lossy and lossless digital compression techniques including subband coding, wavelet transforms, motion detection, run length coding and variable length coding.

Method for rapid data rate detection in a packet communication environment without data rate supervision

Robert L. Packer
TL;DR: In this paper, a method for data flow rate detection useful with dataflow rate control is introduced into a TCP packet communication environment which does not have data rate supervision by computing presumed speed based on latency between packets during the initial interchange of SYN packet and the acknowledgement (ACK) packet, presuming to know the initial length of each.

Apparatus and method for dynamic resource allocation in a network environment

Matthew M. Gilbert, +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a resource controller allocates a portion of network memory to a receive path for receiving data and to a transmit path for transmitting data and an artificial intelligence system predicts future network resource allocations to further increase the efficiency of the resource controller's network resource allocation.
