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 cl...
This paper describes a highly available distributedvideo on demand (VoD) service which is inherently fault tolerant. The VoD service is provided by multiple servers that reside at...
Video on Demand (VoD) services are very appealing these days. In this work, we discuss four distinct alternatives for the architecture of a VoD server and compare their performanc...
