Gerenciamento adaptativo da qualidade da fala entre terminais VoIP

Carvalho, Leandro Silva Galvão de 07 October 2011 (has links)
Made available in DSpace on 2015-04-20T12:33:26Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 1 Leandro.pdf: 2831865 bytes, checksum: 5804d85c95f338cf4054c799f4dfd45d (MD5) Previous issue date: 2011-10-07 / Voice calls based on Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) technology are liable to several impairments from both application and network layer, such as codec compression, end-to-end delay, and packet loss. For years, this problem has been challenging researchers and practitioners, who have been designing and improving QoS control mechanisms for VoIP applications. Such mechanisms aim to make optimum use of network and terminal resources so as to minimize the effects of network impairments on voice quality. Among the several proposed QoS control mechanisms for VoIP, some of them seek to adapt the voice flow or other VoIP-related parameters in accordance with significant changes in the network, end users preferences, or service providers requirements. VoIP systems are particularly likely to require a dynamic adaptation solution for dealing with the complex trade-off between speech quality and impairments, because of the decentralized control nature of IP networks and the stochastic nature of data packet delivery. Although the existing adaptive solutions for QoS control of VoIP show some performance improvement and exhibit some sort of feedback, they do not provide explicit focus on the control loop. This document shows the current progress of our thesis, which addresses the adjustment of internal parameters of VoIP terminals (at application layer) that affect the voice flow, with the aim of improving speech quality in response to changes in network conditions. It is not in the scope of the thesis to propose adaptive solutions that focus exclusively on signaling, billing, security issues, or operate at the network layer. Therefore, this thesis addresses the problem of how adjust encoding parameters in response to variations in delay and packet loss, in order to optimize speech quality. The objective is to optimize user-perceptible attributes of speech, under the perspective of self-adaptive software systems. The emphasis is not to develop new audio codecs, but to build a control loop in the core of sender and receiver terminals to adapt voice flow settings according to network conditions. The main contributions of this thesis are the following: determination of user s perception during codec switching; parametrization of codec precedence for supporting codec switching decision; explicit design of a monitoring analysis planning execution control loop as the core of the adaptation process; and efficiency analysis of feedback message exchanging. / Chamadas de voz baseadas na tecnologia VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) estão suscetíveis a degradações diversas, provenientes tanto da camada de aplicação, como da camada de rede, tais como compressão do codec, atraso fim a fim e perda de pacotes. Durante anos, esse problema tem desafiado pesquisadores e profissionais, que têm concebido e melhorado mecanismos de controle de QoS para aplicações VoIP. Tais mecanismos visam otimizar a utilização dos recursos da rede e do terminal VoIP de modo a minimizar os efeitos deletérios da rede subjacente sobre a qualidade de voz. Entre as várias propostas de mecanismos de controle de QoS para VoIP, alguns deles procuram adaptar o fluxo de voz ou outros parâmetros VoIP de acordo com mudanças significativas na rede, preferências de usuário, ou requisitos dos provedores de serviços VoIP. Sistemas VoIP particularmente exigem soluções de adaptação dinâmica para lidar com a complexa relação de compromisso entre qualidade de voz e fatores de degradação, por causa da natureza descentralizada e estocástica das redes IP na entrega de pacotes de voz. Embora as soluções adaptativas existentes para controle de QoS em VoIP mostrem alguma melhora de desempenho e apresentem algum tipo de feedback, elas não fornecem foco explícito na ciclo de controle (control loop). Este documento mostra o progresso atual da nossa tese, que aborda o ajuste de parâmetros internos de terminais VoIP (camada de aplicação) que afetam o fluxo de voz, com o objetivo de melhorar a qualidade da fala em resposta a mudanças nas condições da rede. Não faz parte do escopo da tese abordar soluções adaptativas que se concentram exclusivamente em sinalização, bilhetagem, problemas de segurança, ou que operam no nível da camada de rede. Portanto, esta tese aborda o problema da concepção e avaliação de estratégias adaptativas que explorem as relações de compromisso entre qualidade da fala e os seguintes fatores de degradação: compressão do codec, atraso fim a fim e perda de pacotes. A finalidade é otimizar atributos da fala perceptíveis aos usuário, sob a perspectiva de sistemas de software autoadaptativo. A ênfase não reside em desenvolver novos codecs de áudio, mas sim em desenvolver um ciclo de controle como entidade central de um terminal VoIP, que possa adaptar as configurações do fluxo de voz de acordo com as condições da rede. As principais contribuições desta tese são as seguintes: determinação da percepção do usuário durante a comutação de codec; parametrização de precedência de codecs para suporte de decisão de comutação de codec; enfoque no ciclo de controle baseado nas atividades de monitoramento análise planejamento execução como núcleo do processo de adaptação; e análise de eficiência de troca de mensagens de feedback.

L’aparté du spectateur : le pouvoir « immertiel » du monologue intérieur

Hamel, Marie-Ève 07 1900 (has links)
Ce mémoire étudie l’influence du monologue intérieur sur l’immersion d’un spectateur lorsqu’il audiovisionne une œuvre filmique narrative. Plus particulièrement, il s’intéresse à décrire les différents mécanismes perceptifs impliqués lors du traitement de l’information sensorielle et de quelles façons ces derniers influencent la production et la perception d’un discours intérieur chez le spectateur. S’inscrivant dans une perspective cognitiviste fonctionnaliste, ce mémoire explore différentes hypothèses et concepts rattachés aux processus attentionnels, mémoriels et langagiers chez l’être humain, eux-mêmes fortement impliqués lors du décodage d’une œuvre fictive et narrative. La recherche proposée permet de revisiter la théorie générale du PECMA flow développée par Torben Grodal (1997), qui conçoit l’expérience cinématographique en tant que flux de traitement sensoriel. L’approche transhistorique et intersectorielle préconisée dans le cadre de ce mémoire permet d’aborder certaines conceptions matérialistes liées aux fonctionnements physiologique et neurologique du cerveau humain, en les combinant à différentes théories issues des sciences humaines et des sciences sociales rattachées au soi dialogique, au soi narratif, de même qu’aux processus de traitement ascendant et descendant. Enfin, l’analyse d’un extrait tiré de The Tree of Life (2011), du réalisateur Terrence Malick, démontre comment l’expérience d’audiovisionnement d’un film peut concourir à mettre en place un recul nécessaire avec le récit, qui s’avère primordial dans l’actualisation et la perception d’un monologue intérieur « immertiel » chez le sujet. À l’aide des notions développées au cours des différents chapitres et s’appuyant sur le modèle du PECMA flow, le mémoire illustre comment une œuvre filmique peut concourir à faire émerger, en parallèle de l’audiovisionnement, une conversation intérieure toute particulière dans l’esprit du spectateur, qui participe directement à son immersivité filmique. Une attention particulière sera accordée à l’usage de la voix-over au cinéma, afin de démontrer comment son traitement dans l’œuvre à l’étude en fait un élément du langage cinématographique qui favorise l’élaboration d’un trialogue entre le sujet pensant confronté à son propre monologue intérieur et sa position de spectateur récepteur du ou des discours transmis par le film. / This master’s thesis studies the influence of the inner monologue on the immersion of a spectator when he/she audioviews a narrative film work. More specifically, it is interested in describing the different perceptual mechanisms involved in the processing of sensory information and the ways in which these influence the production and perception of an inner speech in the viewer. From a functionalist cognitive perspective, this dissertation explores different hypotheses and concepts related to attentional, memory and language processes in humans, which are themselves strongly involved in the decoding of a fictional and narrative work. The proposed research allows us to revisit the general theory of PECMA flow developed by Torben Grodal (1997), which conceives the cinematic experience as a sensory processing flow. The transhistorical and intersectorial approach adopted in this dissertation allows us to address certain materialist conceptions related to the physiological and neurological functioning of the human brain, by combining them with different theories from the humanities and social sciences related to the dialogical self, the narrative self, as well as bottom-up and top-down processing. Finally, the analysis of an excerpt from The Tree of Life (2011), by director Terrence Malick, demonstrates how the experience of audio-viewing a film can contribute to the establishment of a necessary distance from the narrative, which proves to be essential in the actualization and perception of an “immertial” inner monologue in the subject. Using the notions developed in the different chapters and based on the PECMA flow model, the master’s thesis illustrates how a filmic work can contribute to the emergence, in parallel to the audiovisioning, of a very particular inner conversation in the spectator's mind, which directly participates in his filmic immersiveness. A particular attention will be paid to the use of the voice-over in cinema, to demonstrate how its treatment in the work under study makes it an element of the cinematographic language that favors the elaboration of a trialogue between the thinking subject confronted with its own inner monologue and its position of receiver of the discourse(s) transmitted by the film.

Um sistema de conferência centralizada com controle de posse da palavra para educação à distância. / A floor-controlled centralized conference system for distance learning.

Smetana, George Marcel Monteiro Arcuri 10 February 2004 (has links)
Este trabalho apresenta um sistema de conferência multiponto centralizada com controle de posse da palavra, que oferece comunicação por voz e por texto, desenvolvido para dar suporte a ferramentas de educação a distância baseadas em tecnologia web. Além do sistema de conferência multiponto, este trabalho introduz, também, conceitos de voz sobre IP (VoIP), codecs de áudio, tráfego de tempo real sobre redes IP, mecanismos de distribuição de pacotes em redes IP, conferências multimídia sobre redes IP, criação e controle de conferências e mecanismos para se controlar a transmissão de pacotes de voz em conferências multiponto, como detecção de atividade de voz (VAD) e controle de posse da palavra. O controle de posse da palavra ou moderação é uma metodologia para coordenar o acesso a recursos de mídia contínua, como os canais de áudio e vídeo em conferências, resolvendo eventuais conflitos e condições de corrida e garantindo o uso exclusivo dos mesmos por um participante da conferência. O controle de posse da palavra é apropriado para a dinâmica de uma sala de aula, onde na maioria das vezes, o professor exerce o papel de um moderador e de principal interlocutor. Além de regular o fluxo de informação na sala de aula virtual, o controle de posse da palavra também ajuda a reduzir a utilização dos recursos da rede. Como principal resultado deste trabalho, uma arquitetura para o sistema de conferência multiponto foi proposta, implementada e testada. Verificou-se que o sistema é escalável e que o controle de posse da palavra reduz o grau de interatividade entre os participantes da conferência, mas funciona eficazmente como mecanismo para reduzir a utilização dos recursos de rede. A comunicação adicional por texto ajuda a reduzir o impacto do controle de posse da palavra no grau de interatividade. Neste trabalho, o uso de uma topologia centralizada para a realização de conferências multiponto mostrou-se bastante vantajoso, principalmente porque o tráfego multicast não era suportado. / This work presents a centralized multipoint conference system with floor control, which offers voice and text communication capability, developed to support distance learning tools based on web technology. This work also brings concepts about voice over IP (VoIP), audio codecs, real-time traffic over IP networks, packet distribution mechanisms in IP networks, multimedia conferences over IP networks, establishment and control of conferences and mechanisms to control voice packets transmission in multipoint conferences, as Voice Activity Detection (VAD) and floor control. Floor control is a suitable methodology for coordinating access to continuous media resources, such as audio and video channels in conferences, solving resource conflicts and race conditions and guaranteeing their mutually exclusive use by one participant of the conference. Floor control is appropriate for the classroom’s dynamics, where the teacher, mostly, has the role of a moderator and main talker. Besides regulating the information flow in the virtual classroom, floor control helps reducing the need for network resources. As main result, an architecture for the multipoint conference system was proposed, implemented and tested. It was found that the system is scalable and that floor control reduces the interactivity among the conference’s participants, but works efficiently as a mechanism for reducing the need for network resources. Text communications help lowering the impact of floor control on interactivity. In this work, the deployment of a centralized topology for multipoint conferences showed to be very advantageous, mainly because multicast traffic was not supported.

Eisazadeh, Ali Akbar, Espahbodi, Nora January 2010 (has links)
<p>One of the most parts of VOIP management is fault management and, in having a good fault management, finding good mechanisms to detect faults in the network have to be considered.</p><p>The main focus of this project is to implement different types of fast fault recovery protocols in networks<strong>,</strong> especially networks that carry IP telephony. Having a complete understanding of some common link failure detection and fault recovery protocols<strong>,</strong> such as spanning tree protocol (STP), rapid spanning tree protocol (RSTP) and per-VLAN spanning tree protocol (PVSTP)<strong>,</strong> and also having a complete understanding of three other common techniques for fault detection and fault recovery, such as hot standby routing protocol (HSRP), virtual router redundancy protocol (VRRP) and gateway load balancing protocol (GLBP) will be regarded in the project. We are going to test some fault recovery protocols which can be used in IP telephony networks and choose the best. We intend to focus on this issue in LAN environment in theoretical descriptions and practical implementations.</p><p>The final outcome of the thesis is implementation in the Halmstad University’s lab environment to obtain the final result. For doing our thesis, we are going to use some technical tools as hardware tools (Cisco L3 and L2 switches, Routers, IP Phones) and tools which are used for network performance monitoring<strong>,</strong> like as CommVeiw.</p>
