Abstract :
Dynamic resource allocation is critical in the transmission of VBR video. Our study shows that content is one of the major factors that controls the bandwidth of the video bit-stream, yet content alone may not be sufficient in predicting future traffic and in determining how much resource to request. A new framework of traffic prediction is proposed, taking into account both content features and available short-term bandwidth statistics
