Patent number: 11038944Abstract: Technology to provide improved quality-of-experience-aware multimedia streaming is disclosed. Several types of communications that can be made between clients and servers are described. These communications enable improvements to current approaches that are used to achieve hyper-text transfer protocol (HTTP) adaptive streaming. These messages can be used in conjunction with computer circuitry configured to: determine a bandwidth available to the server for transmitting HTTP adaptive streaming content to a plurality of clients; receive HTTP requests from the plurality of clients for representations offered by the server in a manifest file for the HTTP adaptive streaming; and calculate an availability of each representation that is offered in the manifest file for the server. The availability can be calculated, at least in part, based on the determined bandwidth. The availability of each representation can be communicated from the server to the plurality of clients.Type: GrantFiled: May 9, 2019Date of Patent: June 15, 2021Assignee: APPLE INC.Inventors: Mohamed M. Rehan, Rana A. Morsi, Ozgur Oyman, Vishwanath Ramamurthi

Patent number: 9444863Abstract: Client devices streaming content adhering to the Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP (DASH) standard may send Quality of Experience (QoE) information to a DASH manager and request server status updates from the DASH manager. The server status updates may include information regarding one or more content servers including online status information, content availability, load, and content server recommendations. The content server recommendations may be a relative ranking of servers that the DASH manager recommends that the client device select as a source server for desired media content. Based on the server status update information, the client may select a source server. The QoE information sent to the DASH manager may be used by the DASH manager, along with server status information, to generate the relative ranking.Type: GrantFiled: December 26, 2013Date of Patent: September 13, 2016Assignee: Intel CorporationInventors: Mohamed M. Rehan, Rana A. Morsi, Yomna Hassan
