Real Time and Streaming Architectures

The course aims to provide students with fundamental knowledge of methodologies and architectures for the distribution of data subject to temporal constraints, with particular attention to the transmission of multimedia.

By the end of the course, students will have acquired an understanding of the architectural principles of a data distribution system designed for multimedia and interactive services. They will be able to define the requirements of commercially used streaming systems and identify the critical issues related to the implementation and management of interactive network services.
