Video Streaming using Message Accelerator

Abstract

Virtual Network Computing or VNC is a largely used client application for accessing ?les and applications on remote computers. When there is high latency between the client and the server, VNC can undergo from major losses in throughput. These losses become obvious in the case of video, where updates are both large and continuous. Message Accelerator proxy for VNC is simple but highly effective solution for video performance while maintaining the advantages of a client-pull system. By operating on the server, it sends updates to the client at a rate corresponding to proxy-server interactions which are quicker than client-server interactions. When testing using video, our Message Accelerator design results in frame rates superior than plain VNC when running under high latency circumstances. Message Accelerator uses the pipelining system for updating the frames, which increases its performance to a great extent. Message Accelerator here is not a hardware part but software that we have to just apply in our video streaming program. DOI: 10.17762/ijritcc2321-8169.160413
