The Illinois Institute of Technology in Chicago holds a Real Time Communications Conference – the IIT-RTC Conference – every year where Jitsi has been a regular presenter. This year, Senior Jitsi Developer and University of Strasbourg Ph.D. candidate George Politis gave two talks:
- Optimizing the infrastructure costs and call quality of WebRTC based group calls
- Experimental evaluation of dynamic switching between one on-one and group video calling
Jitsi Infrastructure Cost Savings
His first talk was on Optimizing the infrastructure costs and call quality of WebRTC based group calls. This is a great introduction video to the many ways Jitsi’s video conferencing architecture benefits both user and network operators through features like:
- Selective Forwarding
- Simulcast
- Network adaptivity
- Selectively using peer-to-peer
- Stream suspension
Here is the video:

How to blend peer-to-peer in a many-to-many architecture
In his second talk, he takes a deeper dive into the engineering behind Peer-to-Peer for One-to-One. P2P4121 saves on SFU server utilization when it is not needed by routing calls peer-to-peer.
