Average Performance of Adaptive Streaming

This paper analyzes the average behavior of video streaming systems with adaptation to network bandwidth and player sizes. The main results are formulae for average system performance parameters such as average system bandwidth consumption, average delivered quality, etc. Derived expressions are used to study performance limits achievable by adaptive streaming, and to pose several related optimization problems. Numerical simulations, illustrating the usefulness of the proposed formulae and techniques are also provided.
