GOD Queuing : A Novel Grid-based Resource Co-allocation Scheme in Distributed Multimedia System
Z. Lv, Yiping Zhong, Weiming Fu, Shiyong Zhang · 2005
We firstly analyze all kinds of resource allocation schemes in distributed multimedia system, including QoS Manager, SRT, GARA, and propose a novel distributed multimedia service grid architecture - Multimedia Service Grid. Based on grid architecture, This work introduces a novel resource allocation scheme - Grid-based On-demand Queuing, GOD Queuing. We propose the function architecture of the scheme, and describe the main function of each component. Furthermore, This work emphasizes on the resource usage monitoring and adapting mechanism of VOD Multimedia Service Grid based on GOD Queuing scheme, illustrating the characteristic of GOD Queuing scheme in resource allocation. At last, we illustrate the prospective research direction on the combination of distributed multimedia system and grid technology.
