ARTEMIS: Adaptive Bitrate Ladder Optimization for Live Video Streaming

Explore a groundbreaking approach to live video streaming optimization in this 14-minute conference talk from NSDI '24. Dive into ARTEMIS, an innovative system that dynamically configures bitrate ladders based on content complexity, network conditions, and client statistics. Learn how this adaptive method outperforms existing static bitrate ladder solutions, reducing encoding computation by 25%, end-to-end latency by 18%, and increasing quality of experience by 11%. Discover how ARTEMIS seamlessly integrates with end-to-end streaming pipelines and operates transparently to video encoders and clients. Gain insights into the challenges of HTTP-based live streaming for heterogeneous clients and understand how ARTEMIS addresses these issues through its practical, scalable approach. Presented by researchers from the Christian Doppler Laboratory ATHENA, Alpen-Adria Universität Klagenfurt, Concordia University, IMDEA Networks Institute, and the University of Chicago, this talk offers valuable knowledge for professionals and enthusiasts in the field of video streaming technology.
