Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP (DASH) is a multimedia streaming technology currently being developed under MPEG. Work on DASH started in 2010; it became a Draft International Standard in January 2011, and it is expected to become an International Standard on November 2011.[1]

Overview

DASH is a multimedia streaming technology a multimedia file is partitioned into one or more segments and delivered to a client using HTTP. [2] Segments can use two types of containers: MPEG-4 file format or MPEG-2 Transport Stream. [3]

DASH is related to Adobe Systems's HTTP Dynamic Streaming, Apple Inc.'s HTTP Live Streaming and Microsoft's Smooth Streaming.[3]
