Abstract :
Video transfers across IP and ATM networks have received much research attention during the last ten years. Various video services are expected in the future, enabled by the rapid development in video coding and broadband network technology. This article gives an introduction to the issues involved in asynchronous video transfers. Brief overviews of video coding, rate control, and multiplexing, as well as delay, error, and loss control are also given.
