As broadband networks using Fiber-to-the-x (FTTx) technologies are being increasingly
deployed in access networks, video service, especially VoD (Video-on-Demand), is …

流媒体将是未来通信中的杀手业务. 本文讨论了流媒体分发系统的关键技术, 阐述了基于CDN
(Content Distributed Network) 和基于P2P (Peer to Peer) 的流媒体的研究现状, 针对基于CDN …

Two recent techniques for multicast or broadcast delivery of streaming media can provide
immediate service to each client request, yet achieve considerable client stream sharing …

The simplest video-on-demand (VOD) delivery policy is to allocate a new media delivery
stream to each client request when it arrives. This policy has the desirable properties of …

This paper proposes a new technique for on-demand delivery of streaming media. The idea
is to hold in reserve, orskim', a portion of the client reception bandwidth that is sufficiently …

The server's storage I/O and network I/O bandwidths are the main bottleneck of VoD service.
Multicast offers an efficient means of distributing a video program to multiple clients, thus …

A closed-loop (demand-driven) approach toward video-on-demand services, called
multicast cache (Mcache), is discussed. Servers use multicast to reduce their bandwidth …

Multimedia streaming applications consume a significant amount of server and network
resources due to the high bandwidth and long duration of audio and video clips. Making …

Deployment of a large-scale multimedia streaming application requires an enormous
amount of server and network resources. The simplest delivery technique allocates server …

Previous scalable on-demand streaming protocols do not allow clients to recover from
packet loss. This paper develops new protocols that:(1) have a tunably short latency for the …
