         Highlight of Current Activities
     IEEE P1907.1 Standard for Network-Adaptive Quality of
       Experience (QoE) Management Scheme for Real-
       Time Mobile Video Communications
     • Scope: This Standard defines an End-to-End Quality of
       Experience (E2E QoE) Management Scheme for real-
       time video communication systems
     • Purpose: To enable network operators, application
       developers, service/content providers, and end-users to
       develop, deploy and utilize collaborative services that
       employ real-time 2-way and multi-party video
       connectivity within any mobile browser, application,
       game, device, or service platform.

         Highlight of Current Activities
    IEEE P3333 3D Video Human Factors
    • Scope: This standard establishes methods of
      quality assessment of 3D displays, 3D contents,
      and 3D devices based on human factors such as
      photosensitive seizures, motion sickness, and
      visual fatigue.
    • Purpose: The development of accurate quality
      assessment techniques will support the
      evolution of 3D display devices and signal
      processing engines for 3D displays.

        Highlight of Current Activities
  IEEE P2200 High Quality Mobile Experience
  • Scope: P2200 is an IEEE working group chartered
    to enable delivery of high quality content through
    the standardization of time-shifted caching to
    mobile devices
  • Purpose:
  – To improve user experience in the delivering of
     mobile content
  – To relieve congestion on the wireless networks
     caused by streaming

                           Strategic Direction
To leverage IEEE’s communications,
 networking and infrastructure expertise to:
• Address challenges posed by increasing multimedia
  distribution via cellular networks
• Define standard quality of assessment/experience
  for real-time and 3D video in emerging social media
  applications and traditional viewing platforms
• Leverage existing standards where possible (e.g.,
  codecs, networking, etc.) as well as IEEE’s liaison
  relationships to drive to rapid completion (< 2 years)
