With the popularization of mobile wireless networks in recent year, we can expect that the future mobile communication environments will be constructed from networks of different coverages and characteristics. The integration of WiMAX and femtocell technologies seems to be a feasible option for better and cheaper wireless coverage extension. It is well-known that WiMAX femtocells are currently under...
In network-aware concept, applications are aware of network conditions and are adaptable to the varying environment to achieve acceptable and predictable performance. Two basic aspects of network-aware applications, network-awareness and network adaptation, have been widely addressed in the literature. In this work, a solution for video on demand service that integrates wireless and wired networks...
Video-on-demand (VoD) environments frequently batch video requests to decrease I/O demand and increase throughput. Since users may leave due to waiting too long, a good video scheduling policy has to consider not only the batch size, but also the user defection probabilities and waiting times. Moreover, a practical VoD resource sharing scheme should endeavor to provide some free streams to serve a...
As mobile wireless networks increase in popularity and pervasiveness, using internet ubiquitously isn't a dream. The future Wireless Internet is expected to consist of different types of wireless network with different coverage ranges. The integration of Wireless Metropolitan Area Network (WMAN) and Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) technologies seems to be a feasible option for better and cheaper...
