, , , , and . New Dimensions in the Assessment and Support of Quality of Experience for Multimedia Applications, Tampere, Finland, (June 2010)

Abstract

Out of the large number of multimedia content sharing platforms YouTube is the most popular one. This is reflected by the large number of studies which focus on analyzing YouTube characteristics. Techniques for quantifying the instantaneous YouTube QoE and predicting an imminent QoE degradation have in contrast never been proposed. The latter task is even more important if network management actions shall be carried out to avoid a YouTube QoE degradation. In this work we describe YoMo, a tool which constantly monitors the YouTube application comfort. This measure quantifies the application operation condition and allows a QoE prediction. Experiments show that YoMo is able to exactly anticipate an upcoming YouTube QoE degradation.
