Video streaming: how do the socio-economical models shape our research questions?
Résumé
According to a various number of studies, the environmental and social impacts of video streaming is huge and growing. Today, the work of researchers in the field of image processing only accelerates this explosion by contributing to the emergence of new technologies. At best, researchers are simply trying to improve the efficiency of streaming systems, which, due to the rebound effects, also contributes to "accelerating the acceleration". In this talk, we give an overview of the socio-economical models ruling most of the video streaming platforms, and we show that the research questions tackled nowadays are directly shaped from these models. We also show that these models irremediably lead to bigger videos and more videos. Tackling the reduction of video streaming impacts will only be possible by questioning these models.
