In this paper we present a joint sender/receiver optimization algorithm and a seamless rate adjustment protocol to reduce the total number of packets over different paths in a streaming framework with a variety of constraints such as target throughput, dynamic packet loss ratio, and available bandwidths. We exploit the high rate erasure resilient code for the ease of packet loss adaption and seamless rate adjustment. The proposed algorithm and adjustment protocol can be applied at an arbitrary scale. Simulation results demonstrate that the overall traffic is significantly reduced with the proposed algorithm and protocol.
