An opinion paper: Investigating Quality of Service Concerning the RFB Protocol and its Application in Cloud Gaming

Remote Framebuffer (RFB) protocol is a simple protocol for remote access to graphical user interfaces. The use of the RFB protocol has been developed as a means of streaming content, alleviating much of the processing requirements of games for the end user. Cloud gaming is currently an area of the gaming industry gaining large amounts of ground with respect to the potential viability in the future. Understanding how QoS can affect the development of cloud gaming, as well as the metrics involved, and how these metrics affect areas surrounding QoE could help aid developments in cloud gaming as an extremely viable process in the future
