| Sumario: | In recent years, we have witnessed phenomenal growth in live video traffic over the Internet, accelerated by the rise of novel video streaming technologies, advancements in networking paradigms, and our ability to generate, process, and display videos on heterogeneous devices. Regarding the existing constraints and limitations in different components on the video delivery path from the origin server to clients, the network plays an essential role in boosting the perceived Quality of Experience (QoE) by clients. In other words, the network can enable us to optimize serving videos in the application layer by providing helpful information ranging from the status of clients' requests to the capacity of links. Therefore, the network can assist players or other entities (e.g., network edge servers) to make better decisions and improve the Quality of Experience (QoE). However, selecting, collecting, analyzing, and leveraging network information to ensure the highest user quality of experience poses many fundamental challenges that attract researchers from both academia and industry. The ViSNext workshop aims to bring together researchers and developers working on all aspects of video streaming, in particular network-assisted concepts backed up by experimental evidence.
