mobile traffic evolution, network scalability, flat architectures, mobile Internet, IP mobility, distributed and dynamic mobility management 1 Introduction Mobile Internet has started recently to become a reality

Scalability of traffic, network and mobility management functions has become one of the most important questions of the future Internet.

Aiming to solve the burning problems of scalability from an architectural point of view flat and fully distributed mobile architectures are gaining more and more attention today.

The goal of this chapter is to provide a detailed introduction to the nowadays emerging scalability problems of the mobile Internet

On one hand user plane scalability issues are foreseen for anchor-based mobile Internet architectures, where mechanisms of IP ADDRESS allocation and tunnel establishment for end devices are managed by high level network elements,

On the other hand, scalability issues are also foreseen on the control plane. The well established approach of separating service layer

the interoperability between the service and the access layer can easily cause scalability and Qos issues even in the control plane.

It is worth highlighting that the IDN-Service Architecture is designed to allow inherent scalability also in the deployment of its functions.

Also, the interoperability, scalability and stability test cases for this model. It is suggested also the continuity of studies and discussions on the use of semantic representation languages in place of protocols in the lower and middle layers of computer networks

A number of distinguished features ensure the feasibility of the approach to Future Internet scenarios and the scalability to its complexity:

In addition to aforementioned goals, the solution is restricted by the requirements of scalability and efficiency. For example, it must be assumed that the core routers forward packets at line-speeds of tens of Gigabits per second

A scalability study has also been conducted on a loan origination process case study with a few security goals

and seemingly unlimited scalability. This paradigm can be implemented on multiple service levels (infrastructures run-time platform, or actual Software as a service.

A second problem relates to the scalability of the sticky policy approach. Clearly, the policy processing adds a relevant computational overhead.

Tests in labs suffer from scalability limits since physical distances and the number of resources are limited.

A federation of them provides the required scalability features (e g. large distances between entities) and allows the use of special equipment

and scalability experiments with different Future Internet projects open implementations. Further work also will do the extension of the scope of the ontological representation,

Scalability is achieved by largely avoiding per-flow signalling in the core part of the network. In the new architecture, MANE also can act as content caches,

In order to handle such obscurity, scalability emerged in the field of video coding in the form of Scalable Video Coding (SVC) 1 4 and Multiple Description Coding (MDC) 5-6. Both SVC

By adjusting one or more of the scalability options, the SVC scheme allows flexibility and adaptability of video transmission over resource-constrained networks.

Although some of the earlier video standards, such as H. 262/MPEG-2 3, H. 263+and MPEG-4 Part 2 included limited support for scalability, the use

of scalability in these solutions came at the significant increase in the decoder complexity and/or loss in coding efficiency.

and complexity reduction when scalability is sought, compared to the previous video coding standards. The scalability is required usually in three different directions (and their combinations.

We define these directions of scalability as follows: Temporal scalability refers to the possibility of reducing the temporal resolution of encoded video directly from the compressed bit-stream,

i e. number of frames contained in one second of the video. Spatial scalability refers to the possibility of reducing the spatial resolution of the encoded video directly from the compressed bit-stream,

i e. number of pixels per spatial region in a video frame. Quality scalability, or commonly called SNR (Signal-to-noise-Ratio) scalability,

or fidelity scalability, refers to the possibility of reducing the quality of the encoded video.

This is achieved by extraction and decoding of coarsely quantised pixels from the compressed bit-stream.

Fig. 1. A typical scalable video coding chain and types of scalabilities by going to lower-rate decoding An example of basic scalabilities is illustrated in Figure 1,

which shows a typical SVC encoding, extraction and decoding chain. The video is encoded at the highest spatiotemporal resolution and quality.

After encoding, the video is organised into a scalable bit-stream and the associated bit-stream description is created.

and complexity reduction when scalability is sought, compared to the previous video coding standards 4. According to evaluations done by MPEG,

and also employs some other new techniques to provide scalability and to improve coding efficiency. It provides temporal, spatial and quality scalability with a low increase of bit-rate relative to the single layer H. 264/MPEG-4 AVC.

The scalable bit-stream is structured into a base layer and one or several enhancement layers.

Temporal scalability can be activated by using hierarchical prediction structures. Spatial scalability is obtained using the multi-layer coding approach.

Within each spatial layer, single-layer coding techniques are employed. Moreover, inter-layer prediction mechanisms are utilized to further improve the coding efficiency.

Quality scalability is provided using the coarse-grain quality scalability (CGS) and medium-grain quality scalability (MGS).

CGS is achieved by requantization of the residual signal in the enhancement layer, while MGS is enabled by distributing the transform coefficients of a slice into different network abstraction layer (NAL) units.

All these three scalabilities can be combined into one scalable bit-stream that allows for extraction of different operation points of the video. 2. 2 Wavelet-Based SVC (W-SVC) A enormous amount of research

and offer the basis for spatial and temporal scalability The ST decomposition results in two distinctive types of data:

in order to provide the basis for quality scalability. Finally the resulting data are mapped into the scalable stream in the Scalable and Adaptable Media Coding Techniques for Future Internet 385 bit-stream organisation module,

which encodes a video into A n (where N=2) independent decodable sub-bitstreams by exploiting the scalability features of SVC.

These coding schemes provide natural robustness and scalability to media streaming over heterogeneous networks. The amalgamation of SVC/MDC and P2p are likely to accomplish some of the Future Media Internet challenges.

Some of the essential functionalities identified as required for NG Iot platforms comprise the support for horizontality, verticality, heterogeneity, mobility, scalability,

Most of these problems are related to scalability aspects and performance degradation. The level of maturity achieved at the networking level,
