Abstract
To evaluate the performance of multi-player online games (MPOGs) (e.g., the online Chinese poker game), this paper presents a novel Effective Quality of Experience (EQoE) concept that considers the interaction among multiple players. A novel QoE evaluation and adaptation method is proposed utilizing EQoE. Specifically, the proposed method assigns different weights to different players according to their roles in the multi-player online poker game. Some players with a lower weight are willing to reduce their own QoE to save network resources for players with a higher weight in order to keep the game going under poor network conditions. Our simulation study demonstrates the feasibility of the proposed QoE evaluation and adaptation method.
