outline • Scenario • Introduction • Game-theoretic model • Simulation • Experiment • Result • Conclusion
Now we have two Questions • What are the performance consequences of letting the users to freely choose their rates? • How to explain the adaptation process of the users?
symmetric strategic game • N is the number of users that share the access point. • S is the discrete set of strategies available, that is, the set of joint codec plus FEC mechanisms that any application user can select from. • U is the utility function.
Perspective from one user low, 20 kbps (Speex 6 kpbs, FEC 1:2::3:6); medium, 33.6 kbps (Speex 14.2 kbps, FEC 1:2) high, 47.5 kbps (Speex 14.2 kps, FEC 1:2::3:6).
Summary and conclusion • Free users with local information can reach an equilibrium which is close to optimal from the system perspective. However, the equilibrium can be unfair. • Using a game-theoretic model and propose a methodology to parameterize it. • Strength and weekness Discovery thephenomena of letting user to freely choose Need more scalable experiments
