Scalable Video Multicast Over MANETs

Overview The paper presents a video multicasting architecture for Mobile Ad-Hoc NETworks (MANETs). The proposed framework uses the Scalable, Noncausal Predictive codec with Vector Quantization and conditional Replenishment (SNP/VQR) for encoding video into multiple layers of data streams at bit rates between 10Kbps to 500Kbps. A Rate Adaptive Multicast (RAM) routing algorithm is proposed, which dynamically adjusts the transmission rate based on the channel quality to obtain the optimum throughput. The scalability of SNP/VQR, coupled with RAM, enables strong resilience against bandwidth fluctuations as well as the capability to support a range of heterogeneous mobile receivers.

Virtualisation: Architectual Considerations and other Evaluation Criteria

In the past several years, server virtualisation technology has moved quickly and firmly into the IT mainstream. Of the many approaches to system virtualisation available in the market today, VMware's hypervisor architecture has gained the greatest market acceptance. This paper examines the architectural issues, solution support, and enterprise readiness required when deploying such a virtualisation solution.
