Towards Enhanced Resource Sharing in Video Streaming with Generalized Access Patterns
Bashar Qudah, Nabil J. Sarhan · 2007
Recent workload characterization studies show that a large number of video streaming sessions do not access videos in a sequential manner from the beginning to the end, as assumed in most prior work. In this paper, we study the impact of realistic access patterns on resource sharing and propose and evaluate five enhancements to reduce server load and improve customer-perceived quality-of-service (QoS).
