Abstract : |
Hierarchical coding of images and continuous media can be used to effectively control congestion in high-speed networks supporting interactive multimedia communications. However, the tradeoffs of the use of hierarchical coding have not yet been adequately investigated. We have undertaken an empirical study to investigate the effectiveness of hierarchical coding through the hierarchical mode of JPEG from a network perspective. A static analysis of hierarchical JPEG images in comparison to baseline JPEG images in terms of QoS management by packet discarding is provided in this paper. We also share our experiences in the implementation of hierarchical JPEG. I., |
