- Playout Buffer and Rate Optimization for Streaming Over IEEE 802.11 Wireless Networks
- Most streaming rate selection and buffer optimization algorithms are developed for wired networks and can perform poorly over wireless networks. WirelessMAClayer behavior, such as rate adaptation, retransmissions, and medium sharing, can significantly degrade the effectiveness of current streaming algorithms. This paper presents the Buffer and Rate Optimization for Streaming BROS...

- Achievable Bandwidth Estimation for Stations in Multi-Rate IEEE 802.11 WLAN Cells
- This paper analyzes the effect of multi-rate transmissions in a CSMA wireless LAN environment. Observations in a real testbed showed that bandwidth resources (in Bytes/s) are shared fairly among all stations even though transmissions carried out at lower rates capture the medium for longer periods, which drastically reduces the overall...

- A Two-Stage Plug-in Bandwidth Selection and Its Implementation for Covariance Estimation
- The two most popular bandwidth choice rules for kernel HAC estimation have been proposed by Andrews (1991) and Newey and West (1994). This paper suggests an alternative approach that estimates an unknown quantity in the optimal bandwidth for the HAC estimator called normalized curvature using a general class of kernels,...

- Measuring End-to-End Bandwidth With Iperf Using Web100
- End-to-end bandwidth estimation tools like Iperf though fairly accurate are intrusive. This paper describes how with an instrumented TCP stack (Web100), one can estimate the end-to-end bandwidth accurately, while consuming significantly less network bandwidth and time. The paper modified Iperf to use Web100 to detect the end of slow-start and...

- pathChirp: Efficient Available Bandwidth Estimation for Network Paths
- This paper presents pathChirp, a new active probing tool for estimating the available bandwidth on a communication network path. Based on the concept of "Self-induced congestion," pathChirp features an exponential flight pattern of probes one calls a chirp. Packet chips offer several significant advantages over current probing schemes based on...

- Path Selection Using Available Bandwidth Estimation in Overlay-Based Video Streaming
- IP networks present a challenging environment for video streaming because they do not provide throughput, jitter, or loss rate guarantees. This paper focuses on improving the perceived quality of video streaming through dynamic path selection. Selecting one of several Internet paths is possible using multihoming and/or an overlay routing infrastructure....

- A Bayesian Approach to Bandwidth Selection for Multivariate Kernel Regression With an Application to State-Price Density Estimation
- Multivariate kernel regression is an important tool for investigating the relationship between a response and a set of explanatory variables. It is generally accepted that the performance of a kernel regression estimator largely depends on the choice of bandwidth rather than the kernel function. This nonparametric technique has been employed...
