We developed a novel hierarchical control framework with self-management capabilities that enables the concept Abstract Multiparty Transport to ease the control of multiparty content distribution throughout these heterogeneous environments. In order to further exploit the control framework, we integrate two additional Quality of Experience (QoE) enhancement approaches. The first employs the concept of Network Coding to improve the resilience to packet losses. The second approach uses a machine learning scheme that autonomously take advantage of the knowledge about the expected QoE in different network management schemes. Exibir menos
