Prof. Sherman Shen attended IEEE Hong Kong 6G Wireless Summit
Prof. Sherman Shen attended the IEEE Hong Kong 6G Wireless Summit, on September 11-12, 2024, in Hong Kong, China, and gave a speech on "Holistic Network Virtualization: AI-native 6G".
Our paper received the Best Paper Award from IEEE/CIC ICCC 2024
Our work titled "Transmission Protocol Customization for On-demand Tile-based 360° VR Video Streaming" by Yannan Wei, Qiang Ye, Kaige Qu, Weihua Zhuang, and Xuemin (Sherman) Shen won the Best Paper Award from IEEE/CIC International Conference on Communications in China (ICCC) 2024.
This paper proposes a customized transmission protocol that accommodates unique characteristics of tile-based 360° VR video streaming and viewing behavior dynamics induced by head movements to achieve a better viewing experience with reduced video downloading time and improved video quality.
IEEE/CIC ICCC is a regional flagship conference being held annually throughout the greater China region under the vision of realistic globalization by extending IEEE ComSoc's reach to the fastest-growing region.
Congratulations to all the authors!
