The paper presents an investigation on video streaming over a wireless link. The main goal of this work is to investigate how feedback, rate control and stream adaptation can be used to improve the quality of the streamed video. We focus on the recently standardized TCP-friendly rate control (TFRC) protocol as a mechanism for feedback and rate control. Dynamic switching between video streams is used for stream adaptation. Based on simulations, we investigate the challenging scenario of handovers in wireless networks. The results of these simulations show that our approach increases the quality of video stream delivered to a mobile client in a wireless network.

Floating car data (FCD), i.e. traffic and in-car data collected and transmitted by moving cars, is an emerging telematics application providing a range of networked services to road users. FCD is an example of a large sensor network, whose complexity increases with the number of session participants. Our work examines how deploying application-specific functions in the network can help in scaling such systems. We have chosen to configure these functions on a dedicated device that is commonly called a middlebox. These middleboxes use programmable network processors in order to attain the required processing and forwarding speeds, while communicating with each other and a back-end server using standard middleware components. We present our experience in using such a programmable middlebox in the scaling of a large telematics service, explaining how the middlebox fits into the end-to-end application.

Software defined radio (SDR) terminals have the ability of communicating via several mobile systems by reconfiguring their functions. Each mobile system is requested to support a handover from/to other mobile systems in order to allow SDR terminals to communicate dynamically with several mobile systems. The paper discusses system handover between random access type mobile communication systems, which can provide connection-less services. Then, a system handover employing transmission permission probability control is proposed. The proposed scheme controls packet transmissions from the mobile terminals which are connected to the alternative system using transmission permission probability. The permission probability is controlled according to the channel load which is estimated by statistically analyzing the number of transmissions included in each received packet. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme improves the performance of each mobile system.

We propose a communication system and base station network topology. They apply a constraint-based optimal adaptive modulation algorithm and macroscopic diversity reception combining for enhanced robust wireless network QoS support of reliable broadband mobile data communication services. We extend the adaptive modulation research of S.T. Chung and A.J. Goldsmith (see IEEE Trans. Commun., vol.49, no.9, p.1561-71, 2001) in two ways. First, the lognormal shadowing channel characteristic is included in addition to Rayleigh fading. Second, a macroscopic selection diversity scheme is combined with an adaptive modulation topology to enhance the instantaneous BER and spectral efficiency performance. The results show that optimal adaptive modulation control combined with macroscopic diversity enables QoS constraint-based services to be supported more reliably over a wider range of SNR conditions. Also, the macroscopic diversity selection scheme results in a significant improvement in the spectral efficiency. Wireless data link utilization can be increased while the required BER can be supported. Macroscopic diversity combining enables the adaptive modulation to provide more robust/reliable network QoS support under time varying channel conditions (i.e., as the SNR may fluctuate). As the number of combining diversity links increase, the minimum SNR limit that supports the instantaneous BER requirements is significantly lowered, thus making the wireless networking channel QoS and supportive data rate more robust/reliable.

Ad-hoc networks using Bluetooth enabled devices have piqued the interest of the networking community. Network developers are looking into different means of remotely controlling the devices comprising such networks, so as to have the flexibility to change various device parameters without actually being present near them. We present a method of remotely controlling devices in a Bluetooth enabled environment in the home or office from any part of the world via the Internet. A Web page applet programmed in Java can be accessed from any Java-enabled browser connected to the Internet and is used to control parameters of remote Bluetooth devices. It is also used to display the current state of the Bluetooth devices. A novel application of using Bluetooth devices for remote control is that a passive electronic device can be given processing power simply by connecting a Bluetooth chip to it. Any passive device in the Bluetooth enabled scatternet can have processed data send to it by the program resident in the Web server. The paper addresses issues related to internetworking such networks to form scatternets and presents a scatternet formation algorithm to solve the problem of connecting all the Bluetooth enabled devices in any home or office environment.

We describe new consumer services based on speech processing technologies to support a new digital/mobile era of ubiquitous communication. First, we propose, a compact and noise robust embedded speech recognition middleware implemented on microprocessors focused on sophisticated HMIs (human machine interfaces) for car information systems (i.e. car telematics). Second, we report on a novel and sophisticated dialog management/manager (DM) system, based on VoiceXML (voice extensible markup language), called CAMMIA (conversational agent for multimedia mobile information access). The proposed DM handles two important issues: an automatic generation scheme for lexicons and grammars, and an effective combination/merger between automatic speech recognition (ASR) and natural language processing (NLP). The new DM scheme has been evaluated for an application of the car telematics service task after integration with ASR and a VoiceXML interpreter (VXI).

We design a low cost, high performance system-on-chip with video/audio/data processing engines, open standard 32-bit RISC microprocessor, and networking processor unit. We use system-level modeling technology to design and verify H.264, MPEG-4 AAC, and MP3 codecs. We adopt a transaction-level verification technique for self-checking and regression testing of the design. The SoC incorporates peripherals, such as UART, USB, 100/10 Mbps Ethernet, IEEE 1394, ATAPI, Utopia, WiFi, and SVGA. We used real-time Linux as the software. The design can be used to build an inexpensive "TV-centric" multimedia service-center for the home; it provides functions for digital TV, DVD recording, video-on-demand, interactive games, set top box, home networking, and network computer terminal.

IP-layer multicast (IP multicast) is a sophisticated approach for delivering data to multiple receiver hosts distributed in networks, but several issues have prevented its wide deployment. To solve the issues, several application-layer multicasts (ALM) have been proposed as architectural alternatives to IP multicast. ALMs depend on the reliability of the end hosts, but end hosts are less stable than network devices, such as switches and routers, which IP multicast depends on, because their computing resources are shared by other, unpredictable, processes. The article presents a new ALM protocol on an overlay of such undependable end hosts. It exploits a group hierarchy for scalable data delivery, for example, to thousands of receivers, as well as conventional ALMs. No leader hosts are fixed in the hierarchy, but they are dynamically and randomly assigned for each forwarding operation at the end hosts. Thus, the multicast trees change very frequently. This distributes and balances the stress in the delivery networks, avoiding congestion. We analyse the link stress and show that it is up to double the data bit rate when the receivers are equally distributed in the group hierarchy. This also makes the system stable and robust, not only to dynamic membership changes when receivers join and leave, but also to temporal performance changes in the receiver hosts, which would cause errors such as a packet loss when they fail to receive or send some packets in time. We also discuss scalability issues and show the results of demonstration experiments.

Users will soon be able to access ubiquitously present appliances anywhere and anytime through a pervasive digital home environment. For this, we need middleware that provides a high-level abstraction for zero-configuration mid interoperability among middleware, makes each appliance's behavior context-aware, and supports a variety of adaptive behaviors. This paper identifies context-aware and adaptive middleware, called universal home network middleware, for the future pervasive digital home environment. It provides a desirable environment that supports adaptability and dynamic composition through appropriate high-level abstraction.
