Abstract

This paper focuses on using the mindset of co-opetition for collaborative multimedia resource allocation. The co-opetition suggests a judicious mixture of competition and cooperation. We present a novel co-opetition strategy based on the Kalai-Smorodinsky Bargaining Solution (KSBS), and apply it to video rate allocation. The proposed strategy makes satisfied users stop competing for resources such that QoS of unsatisfied users can be improved. Our strategy is evaluated through comparing to existing competition-based strategies. Numerical results indicate that, the co-opetition strategy can result in an improved number of satisfied users. Algorithm with low complexity is also presented.
