Conclusions
Benefits of a distillation-based proxy
- Real-time distillation, guided by statistical models, reduces end-to-end
latency
- Refinement allows explicit bandwidth management
- Transcoding to client-friendly representation reduces client software
complexity
- Content can be optimized for client rendering
- Applications include WWW, mobile computing, network computing
We expect that value-added proxied services will become
increasingly important for WWW access and mobile/network computing.
