In anticipatory networking, channel prediction is used to improve\ncommunication performance. This paper describes a new approach for allocating\nresources to video streaming traffic while accounting for quality of service.\nThe proposed method is based on integrating a model of the user's local\nplay-out buffer into the radio access network. The linearity of this model\nallows to formulate a Linear Programming problem that optimizes the trade-off\nbetween the allocated resources and the stalling time of the media stream. Our\nsimulation results demonstrate the full power of anticipatory optimization in a\nsimple, yet representative, scenario. Compared to instantaneous adaptation, our\nanticipatory solution shows impressive gains in spectral efficiency and\nstalling duration at feasible computation time while being robust against\nprediction errors.\n
