Interactive Video and Remote Control via the World Wide Web

چکیده
The World Wide Web (WWW) is the most accepted service in the internet providing a globally distributed hypermedia information system. Despite its tremendous growth the WWW lacks functionality beyond its basic requestresponse resp. download paradigm especially in the area of stream-oriented real-time media. Thus an important development direction for the WWW is the integration of such media into WWW pages. This paper considers methods to include moving images into WWW pages without changing existing standards or protocols. They are based on the multi-image capabilities of many image encoding standards. In combination with dialog elements the system provides interactive video in the World Wide Web. Video as visual feedback to user commands allows for a highly perceptible user interface compared to explicit confirmations. To demonstrate the concept‘s feasibility a prototype has been implemented and evaluated in an application scenario featuring remote control accompanied by remote visualization.

The performance of a video-on-demand server is affected by the dynamics of user accesses behavior. Most existing efforts consider static user request distributions in their design which can lead to poor performance if the accesses are different from that predicted. Even the use of a video store model to characterize user requests fails to account for the interactive nature of access. This sugge...
