Investigating the Effect of Number of Interlocutors on the Quality of Experience for Multi-Party Audio Conferencing
نویسندگان
چکیده
Towards an assessment method for multi-party audio conferencing systems, we investigated in a pilot study the influence of the number of interlocutors and the audio reproduction method on the quality of experience. Despite some room for improving the sensitivity of our experimental method, the results show that the number of interlocutors and the audio reproduction method influence at least partially the cognitive effort required in conferencing situations and the perceived speech transmission quality.

In this paper, we present a thorough and realistic analysis of audio conferencing over application-level multicast (ALM). Through flexibility and ease-of-deployment, ALM is a compelling alternative group-communication technique to IP Multicast — which has yet to see wide-scale deployment in the Internet. However, proposed ALM techniques suffer from inherent latency inefficiencies, which we show...
