TLDR
It is proved that, in case of one user watching only one video, 5/6 is a lower bound of the capacity which is much larger than 1/2, the achievable rate of chained approach in [2].
Abstract
In this paper, The structure of video conference is formulated and the peer-assisted distribution scheme is constructed to achieve optimal video delivery rate in each sub-conference. The capacity of conference is proposed to referee the video rate that can be supported in every possible scenario. We have proved that, in case of one user watching only one video, 5/6 is a lower bound of the capacity which is much larger than 1/2, the achievable rate of chained approach in [2]. Almost all proofs in this paper are constructive. They can be applied into real implementation directly with a few modifications.

Characterizing residential broadband networks

TL;DR: This paper presents the first large-scale measurement study of major cable and DSL providers in North America and Europe, and characterizes several properties of broadband networks, including link capacities, packet round-trip times and jitter, packet loss rates, queue lengths, and queue drop policies.

An empirical evaluation of wide-area internet bottlenecks

TL;DR: It is found that nearly half of the paths explored have a non-access bottleneck with available capacity less than 50 Mbps, which has implications on issues such as the choice of access providers and route optimization.

Multi-objective optimization for peer-to-peer multipoint video conferencing using layered video

TL;DR: A new peer-to-peer architecture for multipoint video conferencing is presented, based on use of layered video coding with two layers at the end points, which allows each conference participant to see any other participant at any given time under all multipoint configurations of any number of users.
