SIGGRAPH 97
Networked Video
Without the bandwidth

    Regardless of the cool compression devices,
    without good bandwidth,
    video and audio over networks can be unbearable



NOTES: Because of it's size, even with good compression. video is a broadband signal. In order to have a quality throughput and image, high bandwidth networks are needed. In order to understand what sorts of networks, compression, and technologies are needed, you have to know a little about all of three, and there is a lot to know. This presentation is an overview of the topic, with pointers to more detailed information.
