Influence of priorities on the performance of a fast packet switch in the case of bursty traffic

Filling the Pipe
(1995)
An Information on Demand teleservice that was developed at the German National Research Center for Information Technology (GMD) provides remote access to multimedia information consisting of audio, video, and text [jonas et al. 94]. It uses a bidirectional narrowband message link between the end user and the service provider, and a unidirectional broadband data link from the service provider to the end user. Since the IoD teleservice is used across a satellite connection (among others), it turned out to be necessary to implement an access protocol that is optimized for the access of real-time multimedia data across a long-delay high-bandwidth link, a long fat pipe [jacobsen et al. 92]. This paper introduces the MediaService Protocol (MSP) and describes a prototype implementation (version 0.6).
Three emerging technologies are combined in a setup that has been installed and tested at GMD - the German National Research Center for Information Technology: 1. Multimedia Telecooperation Applications; 2. ATM-based high-speed networks; 3. Satellite links. The results are promising: After some initial problems, the complete scenario is up and running, allowing the interconnection of local high-speed infrastructures in rural areas to a core network via satellite. This paper describes the R&D background and state- of-the-art that led us to this approach. It then describes the communication infrastructure and the application infra- structure of the setup, the problems we had and the solu- tions we found. Finally, our experiences are summarized, and an outlook is made for future implementations.

ATM virtual studio services
(1996)
The term "virtual studio" refers to real-time 3D graphics systems used to render a virtual set in sync with live camera motion. As the camera pans and zooms, the virtual set is redrawn from the correct perspective. Using blue room techniques, actors in front of the real camera are then “placed in” the virtual set. Current virtual studio systems are centralized – the blue room, cameras, renderers etc. are located at a single site. However distributed configurations offer significant economies such as the sharing of expensive rendering equipment among many sites. This paper describes early expe- riences of the DVP1 project in the realization of a distributed virtual studio. In particular we de- scribe the first video production using a distributed virtual studio over ATM and make observations concerning network QOS requirements.
