conditions. Based on end-to-end feedback measurements conveyed by Real Time<br />

Transport Control Protocol (RTCP) reports, video source can estimate the allowed<br />

transmission rate and conform to it. The originality of this contribution is to finely<br />

adjust the source video rate according to the relative priority score of the AVOs<br />

calculated by the Classification Model.<br />

• A dynamic network-level packet video marking algorithm for <strong>IP</strong> Differentiated<br />

Service: We demonstrate that the interaction and cooperation between applicationlevel<br />

(i.e. data classification model) and network-level (i.e. packet marking)<br />

mechanisms can improve the efficiency of the overall video delivery system. In our<br />

proposal, the interaction is performed through a dynamic mapping between the<br />

application-level RPS (relative priority score) of each video packet – calculated form<br />

the classification model - and the network-level differentiated forwarding mechanism.<br />

This Diffserv <strong>Video</strong> <strong>Packet</strong> Matching/Marking Algorithm (DVMA) can be located at<br />

the video server side or simply deported to the access edge router. The marking<br />

algorithm can exploit the flexibility of multimedia traffic and process network level<br />

parameters to adapt the traffic according to the current state of the network. The<br />

latter is determined based on reports sent by bandwidth monitors installed on each<br />

node of a Diffserv domain. The bandwidth monitors interact with a policy server<br />

which, depending on the network state, decides the policy(ies) that should be enforced<br />

by the Diffserv network. The implementation of the selected policies typically leads to<br />

accepting, remarking, or dropping the MPEG-4 video traffic entering the network.<br />

• A S<strong>IP</strong>/DMIF Multimedia Interworking Signaling Gateway: To permit a wide<br />

share of MPEG-4 multimedia content between heterogeneous wired and wireless <strong>IP</strong><br />

terminals, we have also designed and implemented an Interworking Signaling Gateway<br />

that supports both IETF Session Initiation Protocol (S<strong>IP</strong>) and ISO MPEG-4 Delivery<br />

Multimedia Integrated Framework (DMIF) Session Control Signaling Protocol. This<br />

multimedia signaling gateway performs various translation functions for transparent<br />

establishment and control of multimedia sessions across <strong>IP</strong> networking environment,<br />

including, session protocol conversion, service gateway conversion and address<br />

translation.<br />

2.3 Dissertation <strong>Over</strong>view<br />

This dissertation is organized as follows:<br />

Chapter 3 presents a state of the art on issues and solutions for supporting packet video<br />

applications over <strong>IP</strong>. This chapter starts with a categorization of current packet video applications.<br />

Then, we present the QoS requirements and challenges for such demanding applications.<br />
