Multimedia over high speed networks: reducing network requirements with fast buffer fillup
Bing Zheng, Mohammed Atiquzzaman · 2002
The cost effective ABR service is suitable for transmitting bursty compressed video over ATM network. Here, we propose a fast buffer fillup (FBF) scheme to run VoD over ATM network with ABR service. We develop models to determine buffer size at the client and the server for our scheme. We also develop relationships between the startup delay, the ABR service parameters, and the network congestion status. Our results indicate that the new scheme minimizes the startup delay and has simple network resource requirements.
