Abstract

Dynamic resource allocation is critical in the transmission of VBR video. Our study shows that content is one of the major factors that controls the bandwidth of the video bit-stream, yet content alone may not be sufficient in predicting future traffic and in determining how much resource to request. A new framework of traffic prediction is proposed, taking into account both content features and available short-term bandwidth statistics
