• Resumen

  • This paper presents the most comprehensive analysis and comparison of the most-known multimedia group and inter-stream synchronization approaches. Several types of multimedia synchronization are identified but only inter-stream and group synchronization algorithms are considered. This is the first survey including group synchronization techniques. A classification of the main synchronization techniques included in most of the analyzed algorithms complements the paper. Finally, a table is presented summarizing the main characteristics of each analyzed algorithm according to those techniques and other critical issues.
