클라이언트-서버 구조의 스트리밍 시스템은 서버의 가용 능력에 따라 클라이언트의 개수가 제한되는 단점을 가진다. 본 논문에서는 인터넷 방송 시스템의 확장성과 안정성을 지원하기 위해 P2P에 기반한 모델을 제시한 후, 프로토타입 시스템을 설계 및 구현하였다. 본 논문에서 구현한 시스템 OmniCast264는 H.264 비디오 스트림을 제공하는 인코딩서버와 스트리밍서버, 피어노드, 프록시 서버로 구성된다. OmniCast264는 스트리밍 부하의 분산화, 실시간성, 에러 발생에 따른 강건함, 계층의 모듈화등의 개념을 가지고 있기 때문에 대용량의 인터넷 방송에 적합하다고 할 수 있다. 마지막으로 PC들을 병렬 및 직렬 구조의 유형으로 나누어 P2P를 구성한 후, OmniCast264의 성능을 평가하여 실시간 재생이 가능함을 검증하였다.

스트리밍 서비스를 위한 서버 시스템은 실시간 데이터를 서비스하기 위한 충분한 용량을 가져야 하며 많은 클라이언트들에게 비디오 파일을 전송할 수 있어야 한다. 또한 지속적으로 늘어나는 사용자수와 추가되는 새로운 저장 공간에 대한 우수한 확장성을 제공하여야 한다. 그러나 현재의 범용 스트리밍 서버시스템은 이러한 요구사항을 충분히 반영하지 못할 뿐만 아니라 늘어나는 사용자의 부하와 시스템 요구에 대한 확장성 및 고화질 고용량의 미디어 데이터에 대한 반영이 이루어지지 못하여 점차 증가되는 사용자의 서비스 요구에 대한 사항을 충족시키지 못하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 사용자의 요구에 대하여 효과적인 QoS와 효율적인 Management 정책을 제시하고 이에 따라 개발된 우수한 병렬 미디어 스트리밍 서버(PMSS)를 소개한다.

Multimedia service systems should have efficient capacity to serve the growing clients and new data. In the general streaming services, users can endure the small amount of time delay at the beginning of service. But they want to have good quality of service. A streaming server tries to transfer video files to clients from a repository of files in real time. The server must guarantee concurrent and uninterrupted delivery of each video stream requested from clients. To achieve its purpose, many stream servers adopt multi-processors, sufficient memory, and RAID or SAN in their systems. In this paper, we propose a Linux-based parallel media streaming server. It is superior to the other systems in the storing structure, fault-tolerance, and service capacity. Since this system supports the web interlace, users can operate easily through the www. This system uses unique striping policy to distribute multimedia files into the parallel storage nodes. If a service request occurs, each storage node transmits striped files concurrently to the client. Its performance is better than the single media streaming service because of the parallel architecture.

For large scale VOD service, cluster servers are spotlighted to their high performance and low cost. A cluster server usually consists of a front-end node and multiple back-end nodes. Though increasing the number of back-end nodes can result in the more QoS streams for clients, the possibility of failures in back-end nodes is proportionally increased. The failure causes not only the stop of all streaming service but also the loss of the current playing positions. In this paper, when a back-end node becomes a failed state, the recovery mechanisms are studied to support the unceasing streaming service. For the actual VOD service environment, we implement a cluster-based VOD servers composed of general PCs and adopt the parallel processing for MPEG movies. From the implemented VOD server, a video block recovery mechanism is designed on parity algorithms. However, without considering the architecture of cluster-based VOD server, the application of the basic technique causes the performance bottleneck of the internal network for recovery and also results in the inefficiency CPU usage of back-end nodes. To address these problems, we propose a new failure recovery mechanism based on the pipeline computing concept.

멀티미디어의 방송 서비스 제공하기 위해서 IP 멀티캐스트의 대안으로써 현재의 인터넷 환경에서도 동시 접속자 수의 제한과 자원 낭비 문제를 효과적으로 해결할 수 있는 다양한 오버레이 멀티캐스트 기법이 제시되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 멀티미디어의 방송 서비스 제공을 위한 병렬 미디어 스트리밍 서버(PMSS : Parallel Media Streaming Server)시스템에 대해 알아보고 오버레이 멀티캐스트 트리 구성 방안으로 분산형 Tree-First 기반의 Spanning tree 구조의 하나인 TBCP기법에 대해 설명하고, TBCP기법의 한계점을 극복하기 위한 오버레이 멀티캐스트 기반의 알고리즘 적용한 효율적이고 향상된 성능을 제공하는 miniOverlay Broadcasting Control Protocol (mOBCP)에 대해 알아본다. 또 제안한 mOBCP 멀티캐스트 기법을 기반으로 PMSS를 이용하여 오버레이 방송 서비스를 제공하는 방안에 제시한다. 성능 비교는 Single 서버와 PMSS로 멀티미디어 방송 서비스를 제공했을 때의 지연시간(Latency)를 비교해 보고 mOBCP기법과 TBCP기법을 PMSS 시스템에서 적용하여 사용자 요구량에 따른 서비스 받는대 걸리는 지연시간을 비교함으로써 제안된 기법의 효율성을 보여주고 있다.

This paper provides the higher user QoS(Quality of Service) by analyzing media service model between server and client in single VoD(Video on Demand) environment and applying it to parallel VoD environment. Media service model is divided into the Client Pull, Server Push, and IPP(Interleaving Pull & Push) model. A server sends data based on client's request in the Client Pull Model. A server one-sidedly sends data without client's request in the Server Pull model. And the WP model unites above two models. For a parallel VoD environment, We built the PMSS system which provides the parallel media streaming services that one client is simultaneously served by several servers. In the single and parallel VoD environment, We compare and analyze the performance of service models with respect to network delay and data size in buffer. In this experiment, we found that IPP service model keeps the least network delay and stable client buffer in the parallel VoD environment. This result shows that PMSS can provide the more quality of service.

This paper proposed an efficient multiple TCP mechanism using Android smartphones for remote control video Wi-Fi stream transmission via network communications in real time. The wireless video stream transmission mechanism can be applied in various area such as real time server stream transmissions, movable drones, disaster robotics and real time security monitoring systems. Moreover, we urgently need to transmit data in timely fashion such as medical emergency, security surveillance and disaster prevention. Our parallel TCP transmission system can play an important role in several area such as real time server stream transmissions, movable drones, disaster robotics and real time security monitoring systems as mentioned in the previous sentence. Therefore, we designed and implemented a parallel TCP transmission (parallel stream) for an efficient real time video streaming services. In conclusion, we evaluated proposed mechanism using parallel TCP transmission under various environments with performance analysis.

In the conventional video file system, videos are stored in a high performance server which has mass storage hard disks or disk arrays. For 3D internet broadcasting, real time operations are required to transmit video files to many clients. This paper describes the design of the 3D internet broadcasting system which can provide realtime streaming service to many users in the 5G environment. In reality, unicast is used to transmit multimedia contents over the internet rather than IP multicast since IP multicast has its own drawbacks in deployment, security, maintenance and so on. In addition, multimedia broadcasting service system like VoD has difficulties in applying to 3D internet broadcasting system since it requires a large amount of system and network resources. In this work, we develop a 3D internet broadcasting system which can construct effective data delivery by minimizing performance-degrading factors.

IStreaming services with a client-server architecture have scalability problem because a server cannot accomodate clients more than its processing capability. This paper introduces a case study for implementing H.264 streaming system based on P2P architecture in order to provide scalable and stable broadcast streaming services over the internet. The prototype system called OmniCast264 consists of the H.264 encoding server, the streaming server, the proxy server, and peer nodes. The proxy server dynamically manages placement of the peer nodes on the P2P network. Omnicast264 has the concepts of distributed streaming loads, real-time playback, error-robustness and modularity. Thus, it can provide large-scale broadcast streaming services. Finally, we have built P2P streaming systems with 12 PCs connected serially or in parallel. The experiment shows that OmniCast264 can provide real-time playback.

WebRTC has quickly grown to be the world's advanced real-time communication in several platforms such as web and mobile. In spite of the advantage, the current technology in WebRTC does not handle a big-streaming efficiently between peers and a large amount request of users on the Signaling server. Therefore, in this paper, we put our work to handle the problem by delivering the flow of data with dynamical load balancing algorithms. We analyze the request source users and direct those streaming requests to a load balancing component. More specifically, the component determines an amount of the requested resource and available resource on the response server, then it delivers streaming data to the requesting user parallel or alternately. To show how the method works, we firstly demonstrate the load-balancing algorithm by using a network simulation tool OPNET, then, we seek to implement the method into an Ubuntu server. In addition, we compare the result of our work and the original implementation of WebRTC, it shows that the method performs efficiently and dynamically than the origin.
