Impact of Upper Layer Adaptation on End-to-End Delay Management in Wireless Ad Hoc Networks
A good amount of research has been developed to support QoS issues in IEEE 802.11 ad hoc networks, such as QoS routing, MAC layer QoS support, and cross-layer QoS design. However, QoS solution at upper layers for real-time multimedia applications is overlooked. This paper investigates impact of the adaptation mechanisms...

Delay-Constrained Rate Adaptation for Robust Video Transmission Over Home Networks
This paper considers rate adaptation for robust transmission of high-quality video over home networks, in particular IEEE 802.11 wireless LANs. The approach includes on-line estimation of the time-varying bandwidth available at the application-/transport-layer. The paper proposes a delay-constrained rate adaptation algorithm to select an optimal bit rate, subsequently enforced by...

Fast-Responsive Link Adaptation for IEEE 802.11 WLANs
This paper proposes a truly-adaptive fast-responsive link adaptation scheme for IEEE 802.11 WLANs (Wireless LANs). The key idea is to direct the transmitter station's rate-increasing attempts in a controlled manner such that the responsiveness of the link adaptation scheme can be guaranteed with minimum number of rate-increasing attempts. Since the...

Peer Group-Based Dependency Management in Service-Oriented Peer-to-Peer Architectures
Dependency management in service-Oriented peer-to-Peer architectures aims at handling functional dependencies between a public service hosted by a service providing peer and all consumer peers that rely on that service. The analysis of dependencies on consumer peers is important for supporting the adaptation of a public service. The uncoordinated adaptation...

Semantic Adaptation of Schema Mappings When Schemas Evolve
Schemas evolve over time to accommodate the changes in the information they represent. Such evolution causes invalidation of various artifacts depending on the schemas, such as schema mappings. In a heterogeneous environment, where cooperation among data sources depends essentially upon them, schema mappings must be adapted to reflect schema evolution....

LDA+ TCP-Friendly Adaptation: A Measurement and Comparison Study
This paper presents an end-to-end adaptation scheme, called the enhanced Loss-Delay based Adaptation algorithm (LDA+) for regulating the transmission behavior of multimedia senders in accordance with the network congestion state. LDA+ uses the Real-time Transport Protocol (RTP) for collecting loss and delay statistics which are then used for adjusting the...
