=Multimedia Networks & Applications=

The Multimedia Elements demands different requirement from the Multimedia Networks like:

Traffic Requirements
The Traffic requirements include limits on real-time parameters – such as
 * Delay
 * Jitter
 * Bandwidth
 * Reliability

The traffic requirements can be met only by enhancements to the basic Internet Architecture

Functional Requirements
Functional requirements include support for multimedia services such as


 * Multicasting,
 * Security,
 * Mobility and
 * Session management.

The functional requirements can be met by introducing newer protocols over the TCP/IP networking stack.

Applications
Applications of distributed multimedia systems include


 * Internet based radio
 * Internet TV broadcast,
 * Video conferencing,
 * Video telephony,
 * Real-time interactive and collaborative work environments,
 * Video/audio on demand,
 * Multimedia mail,
 * Interactive Learning etc.
