The development of delay sensitive applications needs massive data storage and computing resources, especially in a typical cloud environment. The cloud computing paradigm provides a broad range of services viz. software, platform, and infrastructure for various applications (both real-time and non real-time) over the Internet. But, in the case of Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) cloud platform,...
The necessity for distributed parallel multimedia processing capacity in the multimedia-aware cloud derives from the fact that it must provide both data storage and computational resources to the whole number of interconnected users. When an application or a service becomes popular, the underlying system needs to scale up efficiently thus introducing the distributed factor into the overall scheme...
Video streaming and computer games are among the most popular and highest bandwidth consuming media in the Internet. Video contents consume around 70% of the total bandwidth usage in the Internet today. Advancements in media generation tools, high processing power, and high speed connectivity have enabled generation of live, interactive, multi-view media generation. Cognitive assisted and online multi-player...
The heterogeneous cloud radio access network (H-CRAN) is a promising paradigm that incorporates cloud computing into heterogeneous networks (HetNets), thereby taking full advantage of cloud radio access networks (C-RANs) and HetNets. Characterizing cooperative beamforming with fronthaul capacity and queue stability constraints is critical for multimedia applications to improve the energy efficiency...
Multimedia conferencing is the conversational exchange of multimedia content between multiple parties. It has a wide range of applications (e.g. Massively Multiplayer Online Games (MMOGs) and distance learning). Many multimedia conferencing applications use video extensively, thus video mixing in conferencing settings is of critical importance. Cloud computing is a technology that can solve the scalability...
The advance in vehicular and wireless communications has contributed to the release of Vehicular Clouds which makes it possible to release various multimedia and storage services. However, providing a communication service which allows to cope with the high mobility of vehicles, and the limited availability of wireless resources, while guaranteeing a high quality of service (QoS), is a challenging...
With advances in communication technology, future internet presents numerous opportunities to develop new systems designed to make day to day life easier and to enhance and prolong the life of people with disabilities. This motivation propels the development of new services that integrate the mobility of cloud systems and the diversity of IoT (Internet of Things). It will enable us to create new and...
Mobile Cloud Computing (MCC) is an integration of cloud computing in the mobile environment, which is used to improve the overall performance of the mobile devices. The rapid growth of cloud computing and mobile Internet services has triggered the emergence of mobile cloud services. Among many challenges, QoS management is one of the crucial issues for mobile cloud services. Here the survey of the...
