We aim at providing guidelines for an adaptation strategy of SVC that can se- lect the optimal scalability options for resource-constrained networks. Extensive subjective tests are conducted by using two different scalable video codecs and high definition contents. The results are analyzed with respect to five dimen- sions, namely, codec, content, spatial resolution, temporal resolution, and frame quality.} }
