+abstract={This paper will discuss the evolution of computer systems, and will show that while the system performance is  getting increasingly critical, it is also getting harder to master performance assurance and to master the system  evolution. This paper proposes that the real challenge posed currently for the performance engineer is the  explosion of e-Commerce systems where the users are increasingly impatient and the design methodologies are  in their infancy. The reason that the systems are getting more complex is that the system dynamics are critical  to performance, but they are not addressed by traditional design methodologies. One solution to this is to use a  performance assurance process that guarantees that the system dynamics are captured. Overall the odds are  not good for building complex systems, but performance assurance can reduce risk by a factor of ten or more.},

This paper discusses the primary risk factors in development projects, the keys to a successful risk  management programme, and the tools required. It also discusses problems that can occur in e-Commerce  systems and some examples of how these might manifest themselves. A definition and the reasoning behind a  performance assurance methodology is given, and the performance assurance methodology that is proposed  is outlined.},

+abstract={A very important application, which offers access to information on the Internet, is the World  Wide Web (WWW or Web). The WWW is primarily responsible for the growth of e-commerce activity  by the use of the Internet. To improve users' satisfaction with e-commerce WWW services, a lot of work  has been done on characterizing the performance of Internet applications and servers. We discuss in this  article about a monitoring application for performance measurement of the WWW Servers. By observing  the behaviour of WWW servers and measuring their performance, we can estimate several performance  indices. Our application simulates the access of a number of clients to the same Web page and its links  and analyses the results. Three different cases are taken into account: the clients access the same Web  page one after the other (i.e. serially), at the same time (i.e. in parallel), checking before a ‘cache’  structure.},

+abstract={Multimedia networking refers to the transfer of related audio, video, images, text and/or data among networked  computers. Because of their very large filesize and their continuous nature, these transfers are problematic. Unlike the  majority of proposed solutions for transmitting continuous media, which either request a dedicated connection or use  connectionless protocols, we propose a solution which uses a connection-oriented protocol (TCP/IP). A dynamic feedback  and buffering mechanism allows us to continue with the transmission even in the case that the network load increases,  decreasing the necessary bandwidth by gradually reducing the quality of the transmitted stream. Transmission quality is  restored when the network traffic reduces. An object-oriented approach is used to build both server and client, allowing  easier system debugging and expansion. Multithreading is used to solve some problems which require concurrent solutions.},

+abstract={Multimedia is any combination of text, graphics, audio, video, animation and data. Multimedia  applications over the Internet include Video on Demand (VoD), interactive video, and videoconferencing.  However there are limitations to these applications, as it is often required that a multimedia file be  completely downloaded before it can be played or viewed. Streaming is the ability to start processing data  before all of it has arrived, thus making delivery in real-time or near real-time possible. Streaming  technologies are designed to overcome the problem of limited bandwidth. The implication of this is that  multimedia files of any size can be played/displayed over the Internet in real-time or near real-time. To  date, there has been no definitive way to transmit streamed MPEG-4 files across the Internet with an  associated Quality of Service. One possibility is to write a control protocol on top of TCP/IP, which  manages the flow of multimedia data [1]. In this paper, an alternative approach using a protocol stack  comprising a Real-time Transport Protocol (RTP) layer over a User Datagram Protocol (UDP)/Internet  Protocol (IP) layer is described. Firstly we provide a brief description of MPEG/MPEG-4 and RTP/RTCP,  followed by a description of the system implemented and plans for its future development.},
