A Component-Based Conference Control Model and Implementation for Loosely Coupled Sessions

摘要

Conference control is a very important core part to compose a complete Internet multimedia conference system and has been a hot research area over the years, but there are currently no widely accepted robust and scalable solutions and standards. This paper proposes a component based conference control model for loosely coupled sessions in which media applications can collaborate with a Session Controller (SC) to provide the conference control. A SC prototype has been built.
