Sumario:The article discusses methods for adaptive transport designed to improve the performance and availability of streaming video and media compared to traditional online content. It focuses on an enhanced transport developed by the authors known as Paceline, which enables computer applications to adapt demands based on available resources and data importance. Information is provided on how high-bandwidth low-latency multimedia such as videoconferencing, online games, and virtual reality applications can negatively impact computer networks. Other topics covered include TCP (Transmission Control Protocol), UDP (User Datagram Protocol), and fragmentation.
