It is our great pleasure to welcome you to the 2014 ACM Workshop VideoNext: Design, Quality, and Deployment of Adaptive Video Steaming. This is the first time this workshop is launched to share novel solutions for video streaming that fulfill the needs in both quality and scalability and identify new directions for future research and development. VideoNext gives researchers and practitioners a unique opportunity to share their perspectives with others interested in the various aspects of video streaming with a special focus on real-time adaptation.
Each submission was reviewed by three technical program committee members. After the review process, we accepted six full papers and six poster/demo papers. We have also organized the following keynote presentation and encourage all attendees to attend the keynote.
Why the Internet Future Scares Me and How Scalability is the Only Survivor, Vinod Chandramouli, Akamai Technologies

TAPAS: A Tool for rApid Prototyping of Adaptive Streaming algorithms
The central component of any adaptive video streaming system is the stream-switching controller. This paper introduces TAPAS, an open-source Tool for rApid Prototyping of Adaptive Streaming control algorithms. TAPAS is a flexible and extensible video ...
A Control Architecture for Massive Adaptive Video Streaming Delivery
The optimization of massive video delivery, with the purpose of improving user engagement by delivering the maximum available quality of experience (QoE) to users, is a hot topic. In this paper we propose a Network Control Plane (NCP) for video ...
DASH in Twitch: Adaptive Bitrate Streaming in Live Game Streaming Platforms
Live game streaming platforms such as Twitch allow gamers to broadcast their gameplay over the Internet. The popularity of these platforms boosts the market of eSport but poses new delivery problems. In this paper, we focus on the implementation of ...
Quality of Experience of Web-based Adaptive HTTP Streaming Clients in Real-World Environments using Crowdsourcing
Multimedia streaming over HTTP has gained momentum with the approval of the MPEG-DASH standard and many research papers evaluated various aspects thereof but mainly within controlled environments. However, the actual behaviour of a DASH client within ...
Using In-Network Adaptation to Tackle Inefficiencies Caused by DASH in Information-Centric Networks
The consumption of audio-visual content is the most dominant traffic source in today's Internet. Novel architectural approaches, such as Information-Centric Networking (ICN), are developed to support efficient multimedia dissemination. As ICN and MPEG-...
The Impact of Adaptation Strategies on Perceived Quality of HTTP Adaptive Streaming
Changing network conditions like bandwidth fluctuations and resulting bad user experience issues (e.g. video freezes) pose severe challenges to Internet video streaming. To address this problem, an increasing number of video services utilizes HTTP ...
Transitions in Live Video Streaming Services
This work shows a demonstration on the work of the Collaborative Research Center 1053 pursuing Multi-Mechanism Adaptation for the Future Internet. Our prototype shows a live video streaming system on mobile devices featuring Peer-to-Peer (P2P) and ...
A Geo-Adaptive JavaScript DASH Player
In Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP (DASH), the video bitrate is adapted to the network's condition based on client's feedback. Typically, a high bitrate is selected for next video chunk when the average of previously observed bandwidth samples is ...
Efficient HEVC Scheme Using Motion Type Categorization
High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) standard introduces a number of innovative tools which can reduce approximately 50% bit-rate compared to its predecessor H.264/AVC at the same perceptual video quality whereas the computational time has increased ...
Video Ferrying: A Low Cost Video Streaming Approach for Cellular Networks
In this paper, we propose video ferrying, a video streaming approach, which focuses on the rapid growth of video demand on mobile devices and the long-term capacity problem of delivering video content to these devices in the future. This technique ...
Empirical Evaluation of Real-Time Video Foveation
The foveated video compression techniques were developed to deliver high-quality video at lower bitrates, matching the nonuniform sampling in human's visual system (HVS). In these techniques the fovea region i.e., the area of about 2-5 degree around ...
An SDN-based Framework for Detection of Illegal Rebroadcasting of Channels in P2PTV
Nowadays, mesh based live P2P streaming systems (P2PTV) is a popular means of streaming audio and video content over the Internet. The main reason being that it can accommodate large amounts of users with low cost compared to dedicated servers, or ...
