===Congestion Control for Multimedia Applications===
 
The congestion control for multimedia applications (Voice over IP, video on demand) is an ope issue. We have evaluated the congestion control strategies employed by leading multimedia applications that is Skype for the VoIP application and RealNetworks for the video on demand applications. We have found out that both applications doesn't employ a valuable congestion control scheme.

We evaluated how Helix Player behaves when available bandwidth reductions take place in order to find out how it reacts to congestion episodes.
