Optimizing quality of service parameter of multimedia traffic on IPV6 enabled linux kernel based scheduling parameters and algorithms for HPN

Abstract

Current era is the era of Multimedia traffics. This paper investigates into the scheduling aspects of real time multimedia streams with a real time test-bed environment. This will include the Operating System Scheduling Issues, as well as Routing at the Network Layer. An Ipv6 enabled distributed system is designed for priority based scheduling of Multimedia stream generated by VideoLAN Software. The Multimedia Applications must adhere to stringent real-time constraints and Quality-of-Service (QoS) requirements. A DiffServ based, QoS management approach is developed using a new developed kernel level module to parse the network packets and identify the DSCP value, which is marked during multimedia streaming at the source. This paper also highlights several other approaches and comparison that can be implemented for QoS based scheduling of multimedia traffic. © 2011 Springer-Verlag.
