Server Based QoE Improvement for Streamed Video Content in Cloud Architecture

One of the new solutions playing an important role in improving multimedia delivery quality, is applying cloud based networks. In this paper, a new cloud based scheme is proposed for improving user quality of experience in video adaptive streaming services over HTTP. In proposed solution, a server side look ahead window algorithm and a client side HTTP-GET request transmission algorithm are applied. Using both algorithms concurrently at server side and client side, results in reducing buffer overflow probability which leads to prevent playout stall.
