Rate-Distortion Optimized Streaming of Packetized Media

This paper addresses the problem of streaming packetized media over a lossy packet network in a rate-distortion optimized way. This paper shows that although the data units in a media presentation generally depend on each other according to a directed acyclic graph, the problem of rate-distortion optimized streaming of an entire presentation can be reduced to the problem of error-cost optimized transmission of an isolated data unit. The paper shows how to solve the latter problem in a variety of scenarios, including the important common scenario of sender-driven streaming with feedback over a best-effort network, which the authors couch in the framework of Markov decision processes.
