Berkeley Date: Sept 2, 1995 Time: 12:30-2:00 PDT Room: 405 Soda Hall Scalable video compression is important in transmission of video over heterogeneous networks. Over the past few years, we have developed a new class of scalable video compression algorithms based on 3-D subband coding. An experimental implementation of our algorithm produces a single bit stream, >from which suitable subsets are extracted to be compatible with many decoder frame sizes and frame rates and to satisfy transmission bandwidth constraints ranging from several tens of kilo-bits per second to several mega-bits per second. Furthermore, for any arbitrary bit rate in the above range, our algorithm is capable of achieving the desired rate arbitrarily closely. Thus, the granularity of the available bit rates is quite fine. Reconstructed video quality from any of these bit stream subsets is often found to exceed that obtained from an MPEG implementation, operated with equivalent bit rate constraints, in both perceptual quality and mean squared error. Real time software implementation of the algorithm on a multi-processor workstation will be discussed and video demonstrations of the compression results will be shown.

I will also talk about ways in which scalable video can be used to combat congestion in packet switched networks and to overcome time varying nature of the wireless channel. Finally, application of scalable video to storage on parallel disk arrays will be discussed.

Over the past few years, we have developed a new class of scalable video compression algorithms based on 3-D subband coding. An experimental implementation of our algorithm produces a single bit stream, >from which suitable subsets are extracted to be compatible with many decoder frame sizes and frame rates and to satisfy transmission bandwidth constraints ranging from several tens of kilo-bits per second to several mega-bits per second. Furthermore, for any arbitrary bit rate in the above range, our algorithm is capable of achieving the desired rate arbitrarily closely. Thus, the granularity of the available bit rates is quite fine. Reconstructed video quality from any of these bit stream subsets is often found to exceed that obtained from an MPEG implementation, operated with equivalent bit rate constraints, in both perceptual quality and mean squared error. Real time software implementation of the algorithm on a multi-processor workstation will be discussed and video demonstrations of the compression results will be shown.

I will also talk about ways in which scalable video can be used to combat congestion in packet switched networks and to overcome time varying nature of the wireless channel. Finally, application of scalable video to storage on parallel disk arrays will be discussed. <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><> This seminar will be broadcast on the Internet MBONE starting promptly at 12:30. The Fujitsu Seminar room (405 Soda) has approximately 30 seats. Folks at Berkeley might want to attend the seminar by watching it on your workstation, if you can receive MBONE transmissions.

It attempts to bring together the EN service providers, corporate network managers, technicians, and operation personnel in informal environment, so that they can exchange their ideas and view points with peers and experts standing on the same platform. The goal is to bridge the gap across: (i) Enterprise-wide business drivers and (ii) Technology-driven solutions and enablers. Attendees will be benefitted by EXCHANGING their ideas on future directions of ENs in an informal environment with the professionals in varieties of areas (e.g., service providers, implementors) of ENs. They will also be able to SHARPEN their competitive edge by actively participating in the presentations and interacting with the internationally recognized experts on ENs. The purposes of this single-track one-day workshop are to: (1) Present the current view of the researchers, vendors, implementors, computing and telecommunications service providers, operators, and users. (2) Provide the attendees with the future directions of growth of the ENs. For example, how the standardization and interoperability issues can be resolved, how the emerging technologies like ATM, PCS, full-duplex LAN services, etc. can be exploited to help the evolution of the ENs, and (3) Show how the integration and interplays of ENs with the Internets and the information superhighways are going to create a really open universe, and how the billing and security issues can be handled in such scenarios. (4) Explore the principles and problems underlying the design, deployment, management and operations of ENs. Presentations are being planned in the following FOUR themes, and hence papers covering these areas are explicitly solicited and will be given preference: o Experience with and Current Challenges of the ENs o Future Directions of Growth of the ENs, o Integration of ENs with Emerging Technologies/Services, o Outsourcing the Operations, Management and Design of ENs. Please submit FOUR copies of summary (maximum 15 double-spaced pages excluding figures) of technical contribution mentioning the target theme to the organizing chair at the following address.

The meetings are free and open to the public. BayLISA holds monthly meetings on the third Thursday of each month at 7:30 PM PST. We meet at Synopsys Building C in Mountain View, California off Highway 237 at Middlefield. This meeting will also be broadcast via MBONE. Schedule -------- ***NOTE the date for the September meeting is the 2nd Thursday, not 3rd*** September 14: Mike Dixon, Xerox PARC "How to make the Web better than TV" We keep hearing about the net and the millions of new people using it every day. So why don't I ever run into any of them there? Although it's based on a new and much more flexible infrastructure, the World Wide Web has thus far preserved the organizational structure of television: some number of "information" providers broadcasting images, and a larger number of invisible users receiving those images. It doesn't have to be this way. We believe that the web's resources should be located in *network places*, enabling rich interaction with the other users of those resources. In this talk I'll describe our experiences with Jupiter, a prototype built at Xerox PARC to explore the potential uses of network places, and how we plan to build a system that could encompass all of the internet.

OBJECTIVE AND SCOPE The aim of the HIPPARCH workshop is to evaluate high performance techniques for the implementation of communication subsystems, especially the use of "Application Level Framing" and "Integrated Layer Processing" concepts. It will also be used to present the results of the HIPPARCH project, and will thus provide an excellent environment for dissemination of information for researchers working in this area. Topics of interest for which original research papers are solicited include: Adaptable transmission control mechanisms Implementation techniques Experiences with ALF/ILP Tools and description languages for protocol implementation In order to maximise the benefits of a workshop of this nature, we strongly encourage submission of papers which describe on-going research and of implementation experiences. SUBMISSION Extended abstract of approximately 1500 words plus position statement (including references to the current research in the field) may either be submitted by electronic mail, in postscript format to : hipparch-workshop@ee.uts.edu.au or HIPPARCH Workshop Secretary, School of Electrical Engineering University of Technology, Sydney POBox 123, Broadway, NSW 2007 AUSTRALIA Selected papers from the Workshop will be invited to be submitted to the Australian Computer Journal.

This lies at the southern end of Sydney's Central Business District. It is also adjacent to Darling Harbour, which is recognised as one of the major urban renewal projects of the last decade. Darling Harbour consists of parks, shopping malls and entertainment areas, as well as hotels. SYDNEY Contemporary Sydney was established when the first European settlers landed at Sydney Cove on the 26th of January 1788. Since then it has grown to be Australia's largest city. It is the gateway to Australia, serviced by daily flights from Europe, USA and East Asia. Sydney lies on a beautiful harbour. There are many surfing and non-surfing beaches within easy reach of the city, while the foreshores provide a most pleasant environment. Other attractions are within close proximity to Sydney, including some fine examples of Australia's "bush". Sydney is also an ideal springboard to other Australian destinations, such as the Great Barrier Reef and the Central Australian outback, that may be explored pre and post conference. For more information on Australia refer to the http://www.csu.edu.au/education/australia.html. December is a great time to visit Sydney. It is early summer, with average temperatures of 23C. ============================================================== If interested in HIPPARCH '95, return the following information by e.mail or mail to anyone of the program chairmen : [] I intend to make a submission to HIPPARCH '95 ; the provisional title is : .............................................................................. the list of authors is .......................................................

For more than a year Digital Equipment has been attached to BAGNet, a metropolitan area network built from OC-3c (155Mb/s) ATM links which hooks up fifteen sites in the San Franciscco Bay Area. A major goal of BAGNet is to use theseresources to transmit teleseminars, testing to see if high-bandwidth and fast workstations can give enough presence to be effective. This talk will first give some background information on ATM, then will describe BAGNet's history and some of the experiences and problems run into while building and using this network. The plan is to (of course) broadcast this seminar over BAGNet. Further information is available at http://george.lbl.gov/BAGNet.html. <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><> See http://www-plateau.cs.berkeley/298 for further information. The seminar will be broadcast on the Internet MBONE starting at 12:40. The Fujitsu Seminar room (405 Soda) has approximately 30 seats. Folks at Berkeley might want to attend the seminar by watching it on your workstation, if you can receive MBONE transmissions.

If some >organisations have laid claim to a particular address, should one >therefore avoid named addresses in creating new sessions? >Does sd do this already? >Should we all register a name with InterNIC if we want to generate global >conferences? The range 224.2.x.y is allocated by IANA for multicast conferencing. sd allocates addresses in this range. In fact it actually only uses x>128, which means if you choose x<=128, you won't clash with sd allocated sessions. In practice though, you shouldn't rely on this, and should really announce all sessions - this makes fault diagnosis and clash detection easier for everyone concerned. sd should use a mechanism called "informed, partitioned, random allocation". Van's SIGCOMM 94 tutorial gives an overview of how this works - see: http://www.cs.ucl.ac.uk/mice/van/sd.ps versions of sd up to and including 1.14 don't use this due to a user interface bug, and the scheme degraded to informed random allocation, which works OK for the current number of allocated conferences - I've never heard of a clash. I don't know about later versions. >If I create a new session with a TTL of 127, is there any mechanism to >prevent it conflicting with an address in use by someone in another >country with a small TTL, which my sd wouldn't see, except that I ought >to ask on rem-conf? Informed partitioned random allocation should ensure that the low ttl session will not clash with the high ttl session by simply allocating them from a different part of the address space. There's some debate about whether we should replace the current "client allocation" model with a "server allocation" model, i.e., a network of servers performing the allocation and communicating sessions amongst themselves, with clients contacting these servers when they wish to have an address allocated. The main advantage being that these servers would have a better "informed" part of informed partioned random allocation, and client code would be simpler (and therefore less likely to be got wrong!)

Telecomm 95, which will be held in Geneva, is a major international telecommunications conference; for more information, look at http://www.itu.ch//TELECOM/. The plenary speakers will include a number of quite notable speakers--we will send additional information on the speakers and topics as it becomes available. Does this reservation conflict with anyone else's use of the MBONE? We will be originating the multicast in Oregon, and would like to multicast it with a large ttl so that the international community can take part. We are going to multicast the event so that PCs, which up to now have been unable to play on the MBONE, can view it. The viewer will be available for downloading from our Web site (http://www.intel.com) in advance of the event. We will announce its availability to this list and on our Web site. The current version of the viewer is not capable of receiving other MBONE multicasts (see below), and the streams we send will not be viewable by other MBONE tools. However, in order to accommodate the legacy 8-) of other systems on the MBONE, we plan to multicast the content using vat and nv as well; these sessions will be announced using sd. In addition to the Telecomm 95 plenary, we are planning to multicast other one-time events of interest as well as regular content. Stay tuned for information on this as it develops. This is an experiment, in that we are going to be releasing an early version of the viewer that runs on only a limited set of PC configurations. In particular, the viewer requires a high-end 486 class machine with 8 Meg of memory, Windows 3.1 and FTP Software's TCP/IP stack version 1.2. We will include a utility that checks the PC's configuration as part of the installation package, and are trying to arrange to bundle the TCP/IP stack as well. The current version of our audio/video viewer is not yet standards compliant. We made the decision to release what we have at this point in order to begin to enfranchise the large number of PCs that have not been able to play on the MBONE until now. Our goal is to encourage PC users to connect to the MBONE and begin to experience its capabilities. We are committed to Internet standards (RTP, standard video and audio, etc.) and will be releasing fully standards-based versions shortly. We look forward to interoperating with other MBONE tools as they are upgraded to the RTP v2 standard as well.

The standard release of FreeBSD comes with IP Multicasting and mrouted and it has for quite some time.

Cc: aliceef@paradise.CS.Berkeley.EDU BERKELEY MULTIMEDIA AND GRAPHICS SEMINAR Spatial Metaphors in Graphic Displays Barbara Tversky Department of Psychology Stanford University Date: Oct 11, 1995 Time: 12:30-2:00 PDT Room: 405 Soda Hall Long before there was written language, there were pictures, maps, tallies, cave paintings, and depictions of sayings, legends, and songs. Writing began as pictures, and gradually developed sound indicators. Depictions are compelling: they are easy to produce and easy to read. Graphic representations form a continuum, from those, like maps, that are essentially miniaturizations of visual things to those, like graphs, that are visualizations of non-visual things. Studies of children's graphic inventions and of historical examples reveal provocative parallels in the ways that elements and spatial relations among elements are used to convey meaning. Communalities in the use of space to express abstract concepts and relations, across children and across cultures, in depictions as well as in language and gesture, suggest that these are cognitively appealing and natural. <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><> See http://www-plateau.cs.berkeley/298 for further information. The seminar will be broadcast on the Internet MBONE starting at 12:40. The Fujitsu Seminar room (405 Soda) has approximately 30 seats. Folks at Berkeley might want to attend the seminar by watching it on your workstation, if you can receive MBONE transmissions.

The task of the operating system was to allocate resources among competing users. With the advent of LANs and the Internet, multiple computers could collaborate to per- form specialized tasks for a modest number of sophisticated users. In the future, most computers will be connected to what is often called the ``Infor- mation Superhighway.'' This as-yet-unbuilt system will allow hundreds of mil- lions of ordinary citizens to access global information and participate in applications of unprecedented scale. The requirements of the system software will change accordingly. The emphasis will shift from enforcing local kernel-user protection boundaries to enabling groups of users to collaborate and access information efficiently. New models, tools, and other software will be required. In this workshop, we will explore these issues. Possible topics include: - Wide-area distributed systems for millions of users - Tools, models and infrastructure for global applications - Life after the World Wide Web - Caching and replication - (Distributed) management of (distributed) services - Resource and information discovery services - Systems support for multimedia applications - Systems aspects of security and reliability Attendance is limited to 50 people, by invitation only. The workshop will be held at the Renvyle House Hotel in Connemara, Ireland. It is a small, secluded site on the Renvyle Peninsula, surrounded by water on three sides and 200 acres of hotel land and mountains on the remaining side. Papers will be selected on the basis of ability to foster discussion, originality, and appropriateness to the workshop topic. Accepted papers will be distributed to the workshop attendees and via the web. A few papers may be selected for publication in Operating Systems Review.

Message-Id: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII To the Audio/Video Transport Working Group: Some of you may have noticed that the Real-time Transport Protocol (RTP) specification has or is about to expire (the header says September 1, but September 20 is 6 months from the posting date). The purpose of this message is to give you an update on its status. Both the main RTP specification and the RTP Audio/Video Profile are still in "Last Call" state pending review by the IESG and a vote to forward the drafts to the RFC Editor for publication as Proposed Standard RFCs. Back in July, I sent a couple of messages to this list saying that I expected the IESG to review and vote on the drafts in August so that they might be published as RFCs in September. Due to a variety of administrative delays, the IESG vote has not yet occurred. So far as I know, there are no technical objections, just competition from other activities like IPv6, so I hope for quick passage once the RTP vote comes up. I believe that all the necessary preliminary steps have now been completed, so the vote should be taken at the next bi-weekly IESG meeting (September 28). I have issued a message to the powers that be expressing the urgency of this matter and requesting that the process be expedited. Meanwhile, I have been assured by Steve Coya, the IESG Secretary, that "Internet-Drafts for which a Last Call has been issued are not subject to deletion after 6 months." So, the document is not going to disappear from the archives. The RTP protocol itself is not expiring! On a separate front, I posted a message a few weeks ago proposing the removal of a few of the statically defined payload types in the RTP A/V Profile and establishing some constraints that IANA may use in deciding to accept a request for an assignment. In response to that proposal, SGI and BBN have respectively volunteered the removal of the static payload type codes for the HDCC and PicW proprietary video encodings. I have also asked IANA for an opinion about that proposed constraints but am awaiting the reply. -- Steve From rem-conf-request@es.net Sat Sep 16 08:11:04 1995 Received: from darwin.cesup.ufrgs.br by osi-west.es.net with ESnet SMTP (PP); Sat, 16 Sep 1995 05:10:32 -0700 Received: from UPF.tche.BR ([200.17.166.1]) by darwin.cesup.ufrgs.br (051895/8.6.11) with SMTP id JAA02950 for ; Sat, 16 Sep 1995 09:07:21 -0300 Received: by UPF.tche.BR (5.x/SMI-SVR4) id AA02640; Sat, 16 Sep 1995 09:08:40 -0300 Date: Sat, 16 Sep 1995 09:08:40 -0300 From: trentin@vitoria.UPF.tche.BR (Marco Trentin) Message-Id: <9509161208.AA02640@UPF.tche.BR> To: rem-conf@es.net Subject: test MBONE tools X-Sun-Charset: US-ASCII Hi, I'm new in MBONE. I already have the tools(VAT, SD and NV), and I would like to make tests before go ahead with MBONE. I found in WWW, a homepage that allows test (receive retransmission of a seminar that was previously multicasted on the MBONE (http://it.kth.se/htbin/vatplay)). I do this: I entered in MICE and seminars and Media on Demand and I went to the link "form to request an immediate retransmission of MBONE seminars,...". Then I choose a desired recording, and then I typed vat dumburken.electrum.kth .se/4711, and then I pushed the play bottom on www screen. But the sound doesn't appeared. I want to do this to test the tools before I try to joy to the MBONE, but I am having no success. My only success was spoke whith another friend with VAT in the same network (ethernet). I would like to listen this records over the Internet whith VAT, but I am having problems. I don't know, because I think I am doing everything right. I am using Solaris 2.4 (SunOS 5.4), vat (LBL Visual Audio Tool, v2.20 beta). I have another question: in the next page of "MICE and seminars and Media on Demand", appears this: :If your WWW client supports application/x-csh type messages, you can start : ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ :the programs automatically simply by clicking here. : : :If your WWW client supports application/x-sd type messages, you can start : ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ :the programs automatically simply by clicking here. I would like to know, if it's possible, how can I use and get "application/x-csh" and/or "application/x-sd", to try to use to listen the records of retransmission... Excuse me the long mail and the bad english. Thanks a lot... Marco Trentin.

In order to effectively utilize disk storage, scheduling algorithms designed specifically for CM should be used. The sorting set algorithm trades off the properties of the commonly used round-robin and SCAN algorithms to achieve improved performance. It also degenerates into SCAN or round-robin in certain cases, which makes it a useful tool for comparison purposes. In order to support many high-bandwidth CM streams, many disks will need to be accessed in parallel. Increasing the number of disks accessed in parallel results in a greater effective bandwidth, but with all other paramenters remaining the same. Therefore, the increase will handle a similar increase in the per-stream bandwidth in a straightforward way, but does not scale the number of streams without side-effects. By relaxing some performance requirements relating to interactivity (but not real time guarantees), disk parallelism can be further exploited to reduce buffer requirements. See http://www-plateau.cs.berkeley.edu/298 for further information. The seminar will be broadcast on the Internet MBONE starting at 12:40. The Fujitsu Seminar room (405 Soda) has approximately 30 sets. Folks at Berkeley might want to attend the seminar by watching it on your workstation, if yu can receive MBONE transmissions. - -- Andrew Swan aswan@CS.Berkeley.EDU Plateau Multimedia Research Group http://www-plateau.cs.berkeley.edu/ ------- End of Blind-Carbon-Copy From rem-conf-request@es.net Tue Sep 19 14:44:13 1995 Received: from scorpio.arc.nasa.gov by osi-west.es.net with ESnet SMTP (PP); Tue, 19 Sep 1995 11:43:46 -0700 Received: by scorpio.arc.nasa.gov (940816.SGI.8.6.9/1.35) id IAA11394; Tue, 19 Sep 1995 08:24:03 -0700 Date: Tue, 19 Sep 1995 08:24:03 -0700 From: garyp@scorpio.arc.nasa.gov (Gary Paden) Message-Id: <199509191524.IAA11394@scorpio.arc.nasa.gov> To: rem-conf@es.net Subject: NASA Shuttle Mission STS-73 We are planning an Mbone broadcast 9/28/95 - 10/13/95.

I saw these mailing lists on the invitation for: 2nd International HIPPARCH Workshop - Sydney, Australia So I was wondering what each of these mailing lists was used for. Could somebody let me know? I am principally interested in high speed computing/networking. GRAU (known as EMASS in the US) is principally involved in RAS (Reliable, available, serviceable) automated archives. Which we stand apart from the rest of the market by offering capabilities : o handle different types of media in an archive / robotic media library o accept multiple vendor drives in the same archive o infinitely scalable (100 - 100,000+ items of media) This makes for an open robotic library archive. Anyway enough of filling in the background (salesspeak), with new capabilities coming along in terms of options and functionalities, we are interested in developing widely available (i.e. local and remote), high bandwidth (i.e. OC12 to start with), better media management (i.e. optimal use of a piece of media, no more 5% used tapes), resilent solutions (i.e. networked) and are investment protected (i.e. open enterprise storage). Some of these features are available now, some is coming and some is under development. But we are interested in getting things right and would like to work together on at least getting the requirements. The purpose of the mail is to find out where to work together on high speed computing for current services / applications and those evolving.

The conference location will be the Bell South Tower in downtown Nashville. The conference will build on the tradition of the earlier conferences with a few changes in format due to the new conference location. The general idea is to limit the number of participants, concentrate on a few topics, present new problems and problem areas, encouraging informal interaction and exchanges of ideas. The objective is to advance the state of the modelling and analysis in telecommunications by stimulating research activity on new and important problems. The conference will be divided into segments with each segment devoted to a specific topic. This will allow for little conflict between segments. All papers will be screened by the program committee to ensure the quality of presentations. A decentralized paper handling process will be used, the Program Committee has been divided along geographical areas with a separate Program Subcommittee assigned to each area. Abstracts and papers should be submitted directly to Program Committee Chair of the appropriate area. It is expected that this will expedite the paper review process. In response to suggestions made by last year's participants, social and cultural activities will be included in the 1996 agenda. Lead Speakers and Keynote speakers include: Leonard Kleinrock, "Nomadic Computing and its Implications for Network Support" Alan Konheim, "A Monitor for Controlling Peak and Average ATM Input Traffic" Bezalel Gavish, "Low Earth Orbit Satellite Based Communication Systems - Research Issues" The Chairmen of the geographic Program Committees are: ---Australia, New Zealand and South East Asia: Prof. Richard Harris Department of Communication and Electronic Engineering Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology GPO Box 2476V Tel: 61 3660 2457 Melbourne, 3001 FAX: 61 3660 1060 Australia Email: richard@catt.citri.edu.au ---Europe: Prof. Guy Pujolle Laboratoire PRiSM Universite de Versailles - Saint-Quentin 45, avenue des Etats-Unis Tel: 33 1 39 25 40 61 78 035 Versailles Cedex FAX: 33 1 39 25 40 57 France Email: guy.pujolle@prism.uvsq.fr ---North America: Prof. Andre Girard INRS-Telecommunications 16, place du Commerce Tel: 514-765-7832 Verdun, Quebec FAX: 514-765-8785 Canada H3E 1H6 Email: andre@inrs-telecom.uquebec.ca ---North East Asia: Prof. Yutaka Takahashi Department of Applied Mathematics and Physics Faculty of Engineering Kyoto University Tel: 81 757535493 Yoshida-Honmachi, Sakyo-ku, Kyoto 606 FAX: Japan Email: yutaka@kuamp.kyoto-u.ac.jp ---South and Central America: Dr. Ernesto Santibanez-Gonzalez School of Industrial Engineering Catholic University of Valparaiso Tel: 56 32 257331 Av.

The intention is to limit the number of parallel sessions to two. The conference is scheduled over a weekend so as to reduce teaching conflicts for academic participants, take advantage of weekend hotel and airfare rates and of the many events that take place in the downtown area. Due to the limit on the number of participants early registration is recommended. To ensure your participation, please use the following steps: 1. Send to the appropriate Program Committee Chair by October 1, 1995, a paper (preferable), or titles and abstracts for potential presentations to be considered for the conference. Sending more than one abstract is encouraged, enabling the Program Committee to have a wider choice in terms of assigning talks to segments. Use E-mail to expedite the submission of titles and abstracts. 2. Use the form at the end of this message to preregister for the conference. Let us also know if you would like to have a formal duty during the conference as: Session Chair, or Discussant. 3. You will be notified by December 1, 1995, which abstract/s has been selected for the conference. Detailed instructions on how to prepare camera ready copies will be sent to authors of accepted presentations. January 30, 1996, is the deadline for sending a final version of the paper. Participants will receive copies of the collection of papers to be presented. All papers submitted to the conference will be considered for publication in the "Telecommunication Systems" Journal. The Program Committee looks forward to receiving your feedback/ideas. Feel free to volunteer any help you can offer. If you have suggestions for Segment Leaders (i.e., individuals who will have a longer time to give an overview/state of the art talk on their segment subject) please E-mail them to Prof Gavish. Also, if there are individuals whose participation you view as important, please send their names and E-mail addresses to the Program Committee Chairman, or forward to them a copy of this message. I look forward to a very successful conference.

Cc: alicef@paradise.CS.Berkeley.EDU BERKELEY MULTIMEDIA AND GRAPHICS SEMINAR Video Servers: The Impact of Scalable Computer Systems Peter Madams nCube Corporation Date: Sept 27, 1995 Time: 12:30-2:00 PDT Room: 405 Soda Hall The convergence of technologies that enables the emerging Video Server market is proving to be more difficult to deploy than technologists first believed. The goal is to deliver video-on-demand to 10's of thousands of customers. A system is needed to distribute video data to users in a real-time, reliable manner as well as to handle normal system functions such as managing the video data file system, loading and unloading content files, checking authorization, capturing billing records, and so forth. The key element of this problem is the requirement for tremendous I/O bandwidth. The actual number of video streams a video server can support is related to the speed of each one. A system capable of delivering 100 two-Mbit/sec streams can usually deliver 50 four-Mbit/sec streams, and so on. What happens when you need more streams? Several alternative solutions will be discussed including replicating systems, accessing a shared disk system, and developing a scalable server. This talk will present the design of the nCUBE MetroMedia System which is a scalable video server. The design, implementation, and performance of the system will be discussed. <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><> www-plateau.cs.berkeley/298 for further information. The seminar will be broadcast on the Internet MBONE starting at 12:40. The Fujitsu Seminar room (405 Soda) has approximately 30 seats. Folks at Berkeley might want to attend the seminar by watching it on your workstation, if you can receive MBONE transmissions. Due to problems at Berkeley, this seminar will not be available over the BAGNet. We hope to have the problems resolved in time for next weeks presentation.

Assuming you have a fast enough connection to the Internet (with reasonably consistent packet delivery time) and/or a fast enough CPU to perform audio compression in real time, you can talk to anybody on Earth connected to the Internet who's also running the program. The Windows and Unix versions have entirely different user interfaces, but can intercommunicate. Complete source code is available. For communications security, IDEA, DES (less initial and final permutations), and one-time pad (re-used for each sound packet) encryption are available. The intensely paranoid can enable any combination of these. The documentation explains how to use PGP to securely exchange session keys before a conversation; an automatic session key generator is provided. DES is included for commercial users who don't have a license to use the IDEA patent. One-time pad encryption is for those with machines too slow to run IDEA or DES in real time. I didn't include a public key mechanism because I wanted to avoid all the confusion. If somebody wants to navigate the narrow strait between the RSA patent Scylla and Charybdis of export controls, the programming work to implement public keys is straightforward and the source code is yours to hack. For further information, see: http://www.fourmilab.ch/netfone/windows/speak_freely.html which describes the Windows version in detail and contains pointers to the Sun and SGI editions, as well as links to download source code and a ready-to-run executable for Windows. You can also obtain the program by anonymous binary FTP: Unix source code: ftp://ftp.fourmilab.ch/pub/kelvin/netfone/netfone5.tar.gz Windows executable: ftp://ftp.fourmilab.ch/pub/kelvin/netfone/windows/speakfb.zip Windows source code (for Visual C 1.5): ftp://ftp.fourmilab.ch/pub/kelvin/netfone/windows/speakfs.zip The Sun and SGI versions of this program are quite stable, and should work for just about anybody with an adequate network connection. Porting the code to other Unix workstations with audio hardware should be relatively straightforward. The Windows version has just been finished and until it's shaken down on a variety of machines, networks, sound cards, etc. may not work for everybody. The Windows version requires a sound card with Windows Multimedia drivers (I've tested it on a variety of Sound Blasters of various generations) and a TCP/IP stack that supports WINSOCK (I'm using NetManage Chameleon NFS). Since multimedia and network hardware and drivers vary tremendously from machine to machine, I wouldn't be surprised if some tweaking were needed for various configurations. The CPU speed required interacts with the speed of your network connection; if you have a high-bandwidth connection to the Internet, or you're talking to another person on a high-speed LAN, there's no need to compress sound and the CPU load is minimal; just about any machine will do. If you need to compress in order to squeeze 8000 samples per second into a dial-up connection, then you need a CPU fast enough to run GSM compression in real time: basically we're talking a very fast 486 or Pentium. If you turn on IDEA and/or DES encryption, that also consumes CPU time. Based on my experience with other Windows programs, it will probably take months to track down misbehaviour due to strange hardware and software configurations. Complete, detailed bug reports are welcome. I may not be able to respond individually, but the Web page will track updates as they're released. I have tested the program only on vanilla 16 bit Windows 3.1. The Windows version contains preliminary code to support direct dial-up modem connections, acting as a phone scrambler. Serial port support in most Windows machines is so poor (unless you have a 16550A UART and appropriate drivers, which most people don't) that this feature isn't usable at present. I've left the code in just in case somebody with suitable hardware wants to bash it into working form. If you add features, port the program to 32 bits, fix bugs, etc., let me know so I can make your contributions generally available. -------------------- ------------------- John Walker | A sufficiently advanced Internet: kelvin@fourmilab.ch | technology is indistinguishable | from a rigged demo.

For example, a particular user might wish to gain network access through any number of different ports or connection media. Likewise, a network service might reside on one of many possible processors. Under such a scenario, where both users and network services change location, the distinction between the ``fixed'' and ``mobile'' network blurs; all networks are mobile networks. The overall costs of maintaining accurate location records are at present only poorly understood. However, recent work indicates that simply for telephone traffic, the excess network signaling load expense would be much larger than that required for classical fixed traffic. If migrant services and databases are included, the aggregate signaling load can only be greater. In addition, for wireless systems, the relevant signaling events require use of radio channels and such use must be minimized owing to the scarcity of bandwidth. Thus, either from the standpoint of modifying existing fixed network signaling structures or designing wireless network paging/registration strategies, it is important to understand, quantify and devise methods for handling the impact of location uncertainty on signaling. SCOPE: This special issue will concentrate on the problems associated with acquiring and maintaining mobile unit location information in the wireless environment. A representative sampling of topics is provided below: - Mobility modeling - Location prediction - Empirical measurements for user profiles - Location tracking and mobile network topology - Location tracking for handoff - Paging/Registration cost minimization - Multi-unit paging techniques - Performance Analysis of location management strategies PUBLICATION SCHEDULE: MANUSCRIPT DUE: October 1, 1995 ACCEPTANCE NOTIFICATION: January 1, 1996 FINAL MANUSCRIPT DUE: March 1 1996 Publication Date: Summer 1996.

As with InternetPhone, their software is ONLY for the DOS/Windows3.1 or better PC platform. The press release is replete with references to "high-quality" without any definition. It also goes to great lengths establish bragging rights to real-time audio as if other solutions weren't already available... The original of this edited press release can be found at: http://vocaltec.com:80/iwpress.htm y VOCALTEC INTRODUCES INTERNET WAVE FOR HIGH-QUALITY MUSIC AND VOICE BROADCASTING OVER THE INTERNET Available For Free Download, Internet Wave Sets the Standard for Internet Broadcasting By Enabling Organizations, Individuals to Broadcast Shows, Lectures, Discussions, Music and More in Outstanding Audio Quality to Internet Users Worldwide. NORTHVALE, N.J., September 22, 1995 -- VocalTec Inc. today introduced the Internet Wave, or IWave, a voice communications tool that sets a new quality standard for broadcasting over the Internet. Available free for download from the Internet (http://www.vocaltec.com), IWave gives radio stations, entertainment companies, universities and even individuals a way to broadcast shows, lectures, music and more in a high-quality audio format to Internet users worldwide and all Internet users a way to receive such broadcasts. "IWave's technology is adding another dimension to the Internet -- high quality sound. Now, anyone who wants to be represented on the Internet will have the 'voice' to be heard. VocalTec has set a quality standard for real-time voice. Expect all aspects of the Internet to be enriched," said Martin Schoffstall, senior vice president and chief technical officer for PSINet, the leading Internet service provider. "The Internet is evolving into a full sensory experience and IWave will effect [sic] the way the world communicates. VocalTec has developed the compression algorithms to provide sound for even dial-up connections. PSINet, as a pure Internet network, can readily take advantage of these capabilities. We have seen the explosive demand for multimedia on the Internet and have the network technology ready to support IWave." "VocalTec has achieved a level of audio quality that enables radio stations to go 'on-air' online with both speech and music," said Tony Gatto, managing editor, WCBS Radio New York. "IWave opens doors for radio stations around the world to expand their reach to new audiences anywhere, any time and any place with broadcast quality digital audio." "With IWave, every Internet user can be an information and content provider directly from their home PC. It is an amazing concept when you consider that there are more than 25 million users now on the Internet and a new node added every 20 minutes," said Elon Ganor, president and chief executive officer of VocalTec... VocalTec's IWave, currently being considered by Viacom, Virgin Interactive Entertainment Inc. and Sony Music Entertainment Inc., has two main components -- a server package that includes an encoder and works in conjunction with standard web servers and the IWave Windows-compatible helper application. Both are available free of charge at VocalTec's Web site at http://www.vocaltec.com. The encoder compresses data from Windows .WAV and UNIX .AU files using high-quality compression algorithms similar to those developed by VocalTec for the Internet Phone. The compressed data is then stored on a Web server for retrieval. An encoder for live audio source compression is also available for a charge. IWave's helper application supports any Web browser, including Netscape and Spyglass, and can be downloaded from a Web site by end users for easy installation on PCs. Once installed, IWave automatically recognizes and plays back audio stored at Web sites by an IWave encoder. To support IWave, end users must have Windows 3.1 or higher, a SLIP or PPP connection and a modem that runs at 9.6 Kbps or faster. Those with 14.4 Kbps modems will experience audio with quality similar to that of AM radio broadcasts while those with 28.8 Kbps modems will hear audio of almost-FM quality. Individuals who call into Web sites with IWave will be able to choose randomly what sections of saved audio clips they'd like to hear... Audience size for an IWave broadcast is limited only by a server's connection bandwidth, for IWave acts like any other Web activity. In addition, Web site providers can set passwords to limit access to IWave sites or recordings or to sell the service. -------- ----------------------D--I--S--C--L--A--I--M--E--R-------------------------- NOTHING in this posting should be misconstrued to represent the view(s) and/or official position of the US Government, Department of Energy, University of California, LLNL, RECOM Technologies Inc. or of anyone else other than the undersigned.

If at any time we conflict with some other planned event, let me know, and I'll scale back the video. -Kevin Almeroth From rem-conf-request@es.net Mon Sep 25 16:24:43 1995 Received: from rah.star-gate.com by osi-west.es.net with ESnet SMTP (PP); Mon, 25 Sep 1995 13:23:30 -0700 Received: from rah.star-gate.com (localhost.v-site.net [127.0.0.1]) by rah.star-gate.com (8.6.12/8.6.9) with ESMTP id NAA05046; Mon, 25 Sep 1995 13:23:16 -0700 Message-Id: <199509252023.NAA05046@rah.star-gate.com> X-Mailer: exmh version 1.6.2 7/18/95 To: ari@es.net (Ari Ollikainen) cc: rem-conf@es.net, RCWG@nic.hep.net Subject: Re: VocalTec introduces Internet Wave for audio on demand In-reply-to: Your message of "Mon, 25 Sep 1995 09:53:59 PDT." <9509251653.AA00578@viipuri.nersc.gov> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Date: Mon, 25 Sep 1995 13:23:16 -0700 From: "Amancio Hasty Jr." Yeap, I know the feeling not too long ago an intel guy posted that for the first time PCs where going to be able to access the MBONE.

The problem can be generic in nature, not just restricted to one OS. I want to send audio worth 80 millisecs. The read call to the audio device is returning the filled-in audio after around 120 millisecs. Thus making the packetisation time longer than the content time. This is causing starvation at the remote as is the case. Can you please provide with a solution wherein the underlying system is causing a delay thus effectively increases packetisation time ?

You need to use the MS Wave (sound waveform) APIs in chained mode, in which you set up and post several buffers to the Wave input driver. The input driver fills them in one by one and notifies your application program of completion (either by sending you a Windows message or by calling a completion interrupt routine) as it completes each one. (Avoid the interrupt routines unless the Windows messages just don't work.)

The problem with the video capture boards is that is rapidly changing and a few manufacturers will soon release graphic boards with encoders and decoders built in or add-ons to the graphics board. A graphic board tightly coupled with a an encoder or decoder is desired to avoid tying up the bus . Diamond Stealth 64 Vram with their mpeg daughter which supports two video streams is an example of what I mean. I am talking to Diamond right now to see about getting docs for their cards . Not sure who is maintaining the list at: > ftp://ftp.funet.fi/pub/unix/networking/multicast/ However we do support vat, sd, and vic. Also I will soon release bat our own native ip-multicast audio tool for freebsd.

Thanks Mojy ______________________________ Reply Separator _________________________________ Subject: RESERVATION REQUEST: PC-based multicast of Telecomm95 (Oct 3 Author: Abel Weinrib at JFCCM3 Date: 9/10/95 11:08 PM We at Intel would like to reserve the MBONE from about 8:00 PM US Pacific Daylight time on October 2 to 2:00 PM US Pacific Daylight time on October 3 for a multicast of the Telecomm 95 plenaries. Telecomm 95, which will be held in Geneva, is a major international telecommunications conference; for more information, look at http://www.itu.ch//TELECOM/. The plenary speakers will include a number of quite notable speakers--we will send additional information on the speakers and topics as it becomes available. Does this reservation conflict with anyone else's use of the MBONE? We will be originating the multicast in Oregon, and would like to multicast it with a large ttl so that the international community can take part. We are going to multicast the event so that PCs, which up to now have been unable to play on the MBONE, can view it. The viewer will be available for downloading from our Web site (http://www.intel.com) in advance of the event. We will announce its availability to this list and on our Web site. The current version of the viewer is not capable of receiving other MBONE multicasts (see below), and the streams we send will not be viewable by other MBONE tools. However, in order to accommodate the legacy 8-) of other systems on the MBONE, we plan to multicast the content using vat and nv as well; these sessions will be announced using sd. In addition to the Telecomm 95 plenary, we are planning to multicast other one-time events of interest as well as regular content. Stay tuned for information on this as it develops. This is an experiment, in that we are going to be releasing an early version of the viewer that runs on only a limited set of PC configurations. In particular, the viewer requires a high-end 486 class machine with 8 Meg of memory, Windows 3.1 and FTP Software's TCP/IP stack version 1.2. We will include a utility that checks the PC's configuration as part of the installation package, and are trying to arrange to bundle the TCP/IP stack as well. The current version of our audio/video viewer is not yet standards compliant. We made the decision to release what we have at this point in order to begin to enfranchise the large number of PCs that have not been able to play on the MBONE until now. Our goal is to encourage PC users to connect to the MBONE and begin to experience its capabilities. We are committed to Internet standards (RTP, standard video and audio, etc.) and will be releasing fully standards-based versions shortly. We look forward to interoperating with other MBONE tools as they are upgraded to the RTP v2 standard as well. We are not going to be releasing the transmitter at this point to avoid creating an installed base of non-standard transmitters and viewers. By only releasing the viewer, we ensure that everyone will upgrade to the standards based tools when they are available.

BERKELEY MULTIMEDIA AND GRAPHICS SEMINAR Video Servers: The Impact of Scalable Computer Systems Peter Madams nCube Corporation Date: Sept 27, 1995 Time: 12:30-2:00 PDT Room: 405 Soda Hall The convergence of technologies that enables the emerging Video Server market is proving to be more difficult to deploy than technologists first believed. The goal is to deliver video-on-demand to 10's of thousands of customers. A system is needed to distribute video data to users in a real-time, reliable manner as well as to handle normal system functions such as managing the video data file system, loading and unloading content files, checking authorization, capturing billing records, and so forth. The key element of this problem is the requirement for tremendous I/O bandwidth. The actual number of video streams a video server can support is related to the speed of each one. A system capable of delivering 100 two-Mbit/sec streams can usually deliver 50 four-Mbit/sec streams, and so on. What happens when you need more streams? Several alternative solutions will be discussed including replicating systems, accessing a shared disk system, and developing a scalable server. This talk will present the design of the nCUBE MetroMedia System which is a scalable video server. The design, implementation, and performance of the system will be discussed. <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><> www-plateau.cs.berkeley/298 for further information. The seminar will be broadcast on the Internet MBONE starting at 12:40. The Fujitsu Seminar room (405 Soda) has approximately 30 seats. Folks at Berkeley might want to attend the seminar by watching it on your workstation, if you can receive MBONE transmissions.

The read call to the audio >device is returning the filled-in audio after around 120 millisecs. This isn't good. You need to use the MS Wave (sound waveform) APIs in=20 chained mode, in which you set up and post several buffers=20 to the Wave input driver. The input driver fills them in one by one and notifies your application program of completion (either by sending you a Windows message or by calling a completion interrupt routine) as it completes each one. (Avoid the interrupt routines unless the Windows messages just don't work.) I agree with the above comment. I have experimented with the sound = programming on Windows. If you want high performance, you can use chained buffering and Windows notification mechanism. If you use interrupt-based or busy waiting implementation,=20 Windows does not their own operations: GDI painting, multi-tasking and = etc, especially in busy waiting. In the interrupt-based mode, GDI painting gets somewhat odd. In my private thinking, Windows supports DMA for the chained buffering = operation. -weon From rem-conf-request@es.net Wed Sep 27 07:08:21 1995 Received: from fun.inria.fr by osi-west.es.net with ESnet SMTP (PP); Wed, 27 Sep 1995 04:07:24 -0700 Received: by fun.inria.fr (8.6.12/8.6.12) id MAA02071; Wed, 27 Sep 1995 12:02:43 +0100 Message-Id: <199509271102.MAA02071@fun.inria.fr> To: shen@merl.com cc: rem-conf@es.net Subject: Re: IETF RTP In-reply-to: your message of Tue, 26 Sep 1995 16:56:02 -0400.

Here is the description: Marie (Mauri) Collins of Penn State University mediates a discussion on the design and delivery of integrated course packages at a distance and the organizational changes occasioned by the addition of computer mediated communication. Major issues identified in the Penn State Distance Education Task Force Report will be identified and discussed. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- The second colloquium is entitled "Technology and the University Classroom" and will be multicast from 20:30 to 22:00 GMT, and is billed as: Technology can be brought into the classroom, used to extend the classroom walls, or to integrate the classroom into the learning situation of the university or the world. Decisions have to be made along a number of different dimensions to make the most effective use of technology, all based on instructional goals and the students to be served. American Center for the Studey of Distance Education's certificate courses will be used as a model to illustrate an integrated, technology-mediated system of course delivery. The seminar speaker is Marie (Mauri) Collins of Penn State University. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- We plan to use from 96kbps to 128kbps in one nv stream depending on MBONE load and will remain ready to scale back if necessary.

InSoft's Communique videoconferencing is being demonstrated with both IP and ST2 communications over Ethernet and through Bay routers using Syzygy's Network Quality of Service (NQSS) software which includes an ST2 implementation. You can really see the difference when the network becomes congested. Syzygy's implementation of its NQSS software includes a portion of RSVP for the regulation logic. Applications such as Communique using Syzygy's application programming interfaces can use ST2 today and ST2 or RSVP when RSVP is commercially available. NQSS also provides a redirector and gateway which filters IP traffic and setups up reservations and encapsulates the packets into ST2.

On November 23 they are having a concert at the Cathedral - a quintet only - not the full orchestra" (mail message extract) and possibly (parts of) a Symphony here in our city of Fredericton at a Cathederal in the downtown area on Thursday, November 23rd.

Fraenkel (Sigma Design) BERKELEY MULTIMEDIA AND GRAPHICS SEMINAR The Joys and Pains of Editing MPEG Bernard Fraenkel Sigma Designs Date: Wed October 4, 1995 Time: 12:30-2:00 PDT Room: 405 Soda Hall MPEG is by now a well known audio and video compression standard. However, its reliance on interframe prediction had prevented its use in existing video editing tools. Sigma Designs recently introduced REALmagic Producer, the first Editable MPEG Authoring System. This PCI-bus add-on board lets you capture, edit and compress audio and video into MPEG, on your PC. After a brief background on the multimedia market, the MPEG standard, and Video for Windows, this talk will address some of the real life challenges that one faces when developing products on the PC platform, from both a hardware and software perspective. Changing gear, we will also examine current and future trends in the multimedia and CD-ROM arenas. <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><> See http://www-plateau.cs.berkeley/298 for further information. The seminar will be broadcast on the Internet MBONE starting at 12:40. The BAGNet broadcast will use the high quality/data rate transmission. The Fujitsu Seminar room (405 Soda) has approximately 30 seats. Folks at Berkeley might want to attend the seminar by watching it on your workstation, if you can receive MBONE transmissions.
