Abstract

Telemedicine applications provide many opportunities for improving health care in a variety of conditions, in particular for people living in remote or geographically isolated areas without fast access to doctors (“medical deserts”), such as some parts of Finland. In many applications, the technologies used are actually off-the shelf solutions for videoconferencing, in some cases even used in an Over The Top (OTT) fashion over best-effort networks. In these contexts, the quality (both Quality of Experience and Quality of Service) of the whole system can have a greater significance than in other contexts such as entertainment, yet there are no quality monitoring and assessment systems specifically conceived for this purpose. In this paper we present an on-going effort to develop an extensible quality monitoring and benchmarking platform designed with video-based telemedicine applications, and the particular issues associated with them, in mind.

引用一个可扩展的平台，用于远程医疗应用程序的QoE监控和基准测试

远程医疗的应用为改善各种条件下的卫生保健提供了许多机会，特别是对于生活在偏远或地理上孤立、无法快速就医的地区("医疗沙漠")的人们，例如芬兰的一些地区。在许多应用程序中，所使用的技术实际上是现成的视频会议解决方案，在某些情况下，甚至在尽力而为的网络上以Over the Top (OTT)方式使用。在这些环境中，整个系统的质量(体验质量和服务质量)可能比其他环境(如娱乐)更重要，但没有专门为此目的设想的质量监控和评估系统。在本文中，我们提出了一项正在进行的努力，以开发一个可扩展的质量监测和基准测试平台，该平台设计基于视频的远程医疗应用，以及与之相关的特定问题。
