Transcoding proxies are used as intermediaries between generic
World Wide Web servers and a variety of client devices in order to adapt
to the greatly varying bandwidths of different client communication links
and to handle the heterogeneity of possibly small-screened client devices.
Such transcoding proxies can adaptively adjust the amount by which a data
stream is reduced and thereby accelerate the data download to the resource
constrained client.
See the PCN paper for a description of our Transcoding Proxy. See the IBM Transcoding site to see a demo. |
