Moving Picture Transmission System Over the Internet as a Hierarchical Complex System

Zbigniew Omiotek



Abstract

Moving picture transmission system over the Internet is seen mostly as a simple system now, and its individual components are tested independently of the others. According to the author, the aforementioned system is a complex system that creates a structure consisting of three basic layers. These are: the source, transmission channel and network nodes. Each of these layers separately, is also a complex system, and the whole transmission system is in fact a complex hierarchical structure that exhibits fractal characteristics. Therefore, the individual layers of the transmission system should be considered together and not separately, as assumed in most current research directions. This implies a need to use research tools and design methods suitable for the complex systems. The article presents the idea of autonomic computing as a design method for complex systems, leading to improve their performance. The paper presents a proposal for adaptive management of service quality during video transmission as well. It assumes the use of higher order phenomena, which has not taken into account so far.

Keywords:

video streaming, complex system, quality of service, fractal analysis, self similarity, autonomic computing
