Sample Text
MPEG-Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP (DASH) provides formats that are suitable to stream media content over HTTP. Typically, the DASH client adaptively requests small chunks of media based on the available bandwidth and other resources. This client-pull technology has proven to be more flexible, firewall-friendly, and CDN-scalable than server-push technologies. However, service providers have less control given the decentralized and client-driven nature of DASH, which introduces new challenges for them to offer a consistent and possibly higher quality of service for premium users. MPEG addresses this issue in a new work referred to as Server and Network-assisted DASH (SAND). The key features of SAND are asynchronous network-to-client and network-to-network communication, and the exchange of quality-related assisting information in such a way that it does not delay or interfere with the delivery of the streaming media content. MPEG has completed the work on SAND first edition and will be published as a new part of the MPEG-DASH standard by early 2017.
