QoS/QoE in the Heterogeneous Internet of Things (IoT)

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Beyond the Internet of Things

Part of the book series: Internet of Things ((ITTCC))

Abstract

Applications provided in the Internet of Things can generally be divided into three categories: audio, video and data. This has given rise to the popular term Triple Play Services. The most important audio applications are VoIP and audio streaming. The most notable video applications are VToIP, IPTV, and video streaming, and the service WWW is the most prominent example of data-type services. This chapter elaborates on the most important techniques for measuring QoS/QoE in VoIP, VToIP/IPTV and WWW applications.
