Farewell to deterministic networks (2012)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Liotta, A. (2012). Farewell to deterministic networks. . https://doi.org/10.1109/SCVT.2012.6399413

As communication networks become increasingly complex and dynamic, the three functions known as monitoring, control and management prove to be ineffective. It is increasingly difficult to operate large networks, perform diagnostics, prevent cascading... Read More about Farewell to deterministic networks.

Tackling the sheer scale of subjective QoE (2012)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Menkovski, V., Exarchakos, G., & Liotta, A. (2012). Tackling the sheer scale of subjective QoE. In Mobile Multimedia Communications (1-15). https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-642-30419-4_1

Maximum Likelihood Difference Scaling (MLDS) used as a method for subjective assessment of video quality alleviates the inconveniencies associated with high variation and biases common in rating methods. However, the number of tests in a MLDS study r... Read More about Tackling the sheer scale of subjective QoE.
