BONES: Near-Optimal Neural-Enhanced Video Streaming

BONES is a Neural-Enhanced Streaming (NES) control algorithm that jointly manages network and computational resources to maximize the quality of experience (QoE) for users. It formulates NES as a Lyapunov optimization problem and solves it online with near-optimal performance. BO
