Power-boosting residential wired broadband
Pages 101 - 102
Abstract
Residential users often face performance issues while using wired broadband connection with bandwidth hungry applications such as high-quality video streaming. Despite residential users have both wired (ADSL, cable, fibre) and wireless (3G, 4G) access technology at disposal, there are no applications capable of exploiting all the available capacity across different access technologies. In this demo we present an over the top (OTT) system, able to strategically On-Load a fraction of the data traffic from the wired to the cellular network, providing a power-boost for video streaming application over HTTP. We show that our solution is effective in reducing both pre-fetching and download time.

3GOL: power-boosting ADSL using 3G onloading
CoNEXT '13: Proceedings of the ninth ACM conference on Emerging networking experiments and technologiesThe co-existence of cellular and wired networks has been exploited almost exclusively in the direction of OffLoading traffic from the former onto the latter. In this paper we claim that there exist cases that call for the exact opposite, i.e, use the ...
When David helps Goliath: the case for 3G onloading
HotNets-XI: Proceedings of the 11th ACM Workshop on Hot Topics in NetworksAccess link can often be the bottleneck for application performance. In this paper, we propose to augment wired connections using cellular ones, that we term "3G onloading (3GOL)". 3GOL utilizes available mobile devices and already-paid-for data volumes ...
