The Efficient Buffer Management for a Multimedia File System  

Hong, Chul-Eui (상명대학교)
Abstract
The multimedia data for video-on-demand(VOD) service has large, continuous and real time characteristics. The frequent disk I/O operations takes much time and decrease the system performance in multimedia services. Therefore the efficient buffer management is needed in order to reduce the disk accesses to multimedia data. This paper addresses how to increase the buffer hit ratio and the number of users in a multimedia service like VOD by increasing the utility of buffer. This paper also simulated various resource management algorithms and strategies and evaluated, compared and analyzed their performances.
