Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A streaming media client negotiates a single value for each reporting parameter associated with all accepted quality metrics applied to the same level of a streaming media session. This way, each quality metric applied to the same level of a streaming media session is reported with the same rate and optionally the same range, thus reducing the number of QoE/QoS reports generated by the client. According to one embodiment, quality of a streaming media session established between a client and a server is indicated by negotiating a single value for a reporting parameter associated with a plurality of quality metrics applied to the same level of the streaming media session. The level may be the session level or a media level. The quality metrics accepted by the client and server during negotiation are reported according to the negotiated reporting parameter value.
