The considerable surge in energy consumption within data centers can be attributed to the exponential rise in demand for complex computing workflows and storage resources. Video streaming applications are both compute and storage-intensive and account ...

This paper highlights the current trends and the necessary research directions for achieving carbon-effective streaming services. Collaboration between the end-to-end delivery pipeline vendors is encouraged to design standards and technologies.

Video streaming is a widely used and energy-demanding online service, which contributes to CO2 emissions and environmental issues. In this paper, we investigate the technological feasibility and benefits of green streaming technologies, which aim to ...

Current OTT linear deployments are rather static infrastructures. The setup can be altered occasionally by an operator manipulation, based on anticipated audience or events. In this article, several real time optimizations are presented to decrease ...

For adaptive streaming applications, low-complexity and accurate video complexity features are necessary to analyze the video content in real time, which ensures fast and compression-efficient video streaming without disruptions. State-of-the-art ...

In this paper, we discuss the evolution in energy efficiency for software-based encoding on general-purpose processors, along with recent trends that enable increasingly power-efficient video encoding. We provide an overview of different contributing ...

In this paper, we study decoding energy reduction opportunities using temporal-domain filtering and subsampling methods. In particular, we study spatiotemporal filtering using a contrast sensitivity function and temporal downscaling, i.e., frame rate ...

In live video streaming, the size of Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP (DASH) manifest grows as the number of periods increases and/or the overall time duration of DASH manifest increases. The bigger the manifest size in bytes is, the more ...
