Spring 2011 (RA)

Working on getting results from our work on using idle times of bandwidth. I prepared 15 video streams for the experiments. For now, I assumed 10 are prerecorded and 5 are live. The using slack times for sending data in advance results in significant improvement (even without dropping quality layers). I have added one figure showing the results compared to SMS (it is added to the previous report). I am working on adding other results (energy saving, quality, min/max dropped frames)

Worked on camera ready version of Networking 11. In sec. 2, I added information about SMS compared to our algorithm and also about our MoViD paper and its relation to our work. In sec. 4.1 I added explanation about having fixed buffer capacity for all receivers and also some clarifications on the key idea of our algorithm. Also corrected the typos on different sections of the paper.

Working on analysis of results of ADT algorithm, based on the aggregate of average bit rate, aggregate of instantaneous bit rate, and average buffer level of receivers.
Formulated to solution for using slack times in MoViD paper. Now working on the evaluation of the solution.

Updated the algorithm and the proof of correctness and having no underflow instances
Change to the algorithm is not significant, but makes it stronger and also helps us prove the correctness
Some of the results need to be updated again based on the latest changes
