A New Signaling Topology for Multiparty Web Real-time Video Conference Networks

The topology of multiparty conference networks has a prominent impact on its performance. In fact, a dense topology may produce high overload and low capacity, while a sparse topology may be susceptible to network partitioning and additional delay. In this paper, we introduce the WebRTC technology, and we expose an overview of existing work in WebRTC multiparty conferencing topologies, and then we present the proposed overlay topology design and a Jingle extension to enable operating within a huge, heterogeneous and dynamically changing network.
