Abstract :
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.
