Streaming Video Traffic: Characterization and Network Impact
Overview The emergence of the Internet as a pervasive communication medium, and the widespread availability of digital video technology have led to the rise of several networked streaming media applications such as live video broadcasts, distance education and corporate telecasts. This paper studies the traffic associated with two major categories of streaming content - on-demand streaming of pre-recorded content and live broadcasting. Using streaming logs from a commercial service, the paper analyzes the traffic along a number of dimensions such as session characterization, object popularity, protocol choice and network load.
