In general, session mobility is defined as the transfer of a running streaming session from one device to another device where it may need to be consumed in an adaptive way. The two main challenges are: (1) taking into account the new context of the device (e.g., capabilities) to which the session is transferred and (2) performing the actual transfer in a seamless and interoperable way. Our system addresses both challenges supported by a prototype implementation integrated into VLC. In anticipation of the results we can conclude that interoperability is achieved adopting existing standards while the performance of the system does not depend on these standards. That is, the modules responsible for the performance are usually not defined within such standards and left out for competition. However, our system is designed in an extensible way and is able to accommodate this fact.}, language = {EN}, location = {San Jose, CA, USA}, pdf = {https://www.itec.aau.at/bib/files/mueller_A_Test_Bed_for_DASH_featuring_Session_Mobility.pdf}, talkdate = {2011.02.25}, talktype = {registered} }
