Importance of Multimedia Delivery• Multimedia is predominant on the
Internet• Real-time entertainment
– Streaming video and audio– More than 70% of Internet traffic
at peak periods• Popular services
– YouTube (17.85%), Netflix (37.05%), Amazon Video (3.11%), Hulu (2.58%)
– All delivered over-the-top (OTT)

The nice thing about standards is that you have so
many to choose from.Andrew S. Tanenbaum, in

Today (2016):• 3GPP Rel. 13 (Mar’16)• DASH 2nd (May’14)• Many adoptions (e.g. DVB, HbbTV)• DASH 3rd (to be published 2016)• CMAF (to be published 2017)
The Goal of this Grand Challenge• MPEG-DASH defines formats only
– Media Presentation Description (MPD)– Segment format: mp4, ts
• MPEG-DASH is not– System, protocol, presentation, codec, interactivity, DRM, client specification– Other standards required for a complete ecosystem: e.g., DASH-IF, WAVE, HMTL5,
MSE, EME• Aim of this grand challenge
– Solicit contributions addressing end-to-end delivery aspects– Improve QoE while optimally utilising the available network infrastructures and its associated
costs– Includes the content preparation for DASH, the content delivery within existing networks, and
the client implementationsJuly 2016 ICME 2016 Grand Challenge, C. Timmerer 7
Dataset, Tools, Evaluation Criteria• Dataset/APIs/Library– Encoding & Player: https://bitmovin.com – (Distributed) DASH dataset: http://dash.itec.aau.at
• Evaluation Criteria– Evaluation of Streaming Performance– Evaluation Methodology– Disruptive Technology

Reproducible Research• Paper only submission not sufficient• Evaluation on a publicly available dataset / add’l submission of the dataset
– E.g.: dataset track at MMSys or QoMEX (QUALINET Databases)• Add’l submission of code (open source)
– E.g.: open source software competition• Result and Artifact Review and Badging
– Repeatability ⇨ Replicability ⇨ Reproducibility– Artifacts Evaluated ⇨ Artifacts Available ⇨ Results Validated– Badging committee or part of the TPC

Future of the DASH Challenge• DASH-IF Academic Track: http://dashif.org/academic-track/
– identify research communities working in the area of DASH– create awareness of DASH-IF material and promote it within the academic
community, and– solicit research within and collect results from the academic community
• MMSys 2016 Excellence in DASH Award– https://mmsys2016.itec.aau.at/
• Planned– MMSys 2017 Excellence in DASH Award– ICME 2017 DASH Grand Challenge
