In providing video-on-demand (VoD) services to a number of clients through networks, the bandwidth requirements of video transmission restrict VoD services. For this reason, many significant broadcasting-based VoD schemes have been proposed to efficiently support services. However, the broadcasting-based VoD schemes approach needs frequency channel hopping, using many channels at the same time and managing many segments of a video. These make it difficult to implement. In this paper, we propose a Harmonic Staggered broadcasting scheme which has a simple structure and substantially improved VoD efficiency. The numerical results demonstrate that the viewer's waiting time of the Harmonic Staggered broadcasting scheme is close to the harmonic broadcasting scheme and the maximum buffer requirements of this can be adapted for demanding rate by adjusting the short front part of a video sizes.

In this paper, the parallel algorithm using MPI(Message-Passing Interface) library is introduced in order to improve numerical efficiency for the staggered method for nearly incompressible and impermeable porous media which was introduced by Park and Tak(2010). The porous media theory and the staggered method are also briefly introduced in this paper. Moreover, we account for MPI library for blocking, non-blocking, and collective communication, and propose combined the staggered method with the blocking and nonblocking MPI library. And then, we present how to allocate CPUs on the staggered method and the MPI library, which is related with the numerical efficiency in order to solve unknown variables on nearly incompressible and impermeable porous media. Finally, the results comparing serial solution with parallel solution are verified by 2 dimensional saturated porous model according to the number of FEM meshes.

A periodic broadcasting is known as an efficient technique for delivering popular videos to reduce bandwidth requirements for transmitting streaming video to viewers in video-on-demand (VoD) services. However, the most periodic VoD schemes approach needs frequency channel hopping, many segments of video managing, and using many channel at the same time. These make it difficult to implement. In this paper, we propose a Staircase Staggered broadcasting scheme which has a simple structure and substantially improved VoD efficiency. The numerical results demonstrate that the viewer's waiting time of the Staircase Staggered broadcasting scheme is close to the staircase broadcasting scheme and the maximum buffer requirements of this can be adapted for demanding rate by adjusting the short front part of a video sizes.

The mixed finite element analysis is the most widely used method for saturated porous media. Generally, in this method, direct method and iterative method are proposed to obtain unknown variable, however, the iterative method is recommended because the method provide numerical stability and accuracy under the material properties for solid and fluid are different. In this paper, we introduce staggered method which has strong numerical stability, and FETI(Finite Element Tearing and Interconnecting) which is one of decomposition methods are applied into the method in order to obtain numerical efficiency. In which, Lagrange Multipliers and conjugated gradient method to solve decomposed domain are proposed, and then, the proposed method is verified numerical efficiency by point to point MPI(Message Passing Interface) library.

포화된 다공질 매체의 수치해석은 일반적으로 혼합유한요소방법(Mixed Finite Element Method)이 쓰인다. 이 혼합유한요소 방법은 고체변형과 유체의 이동을 동시에 고려하게 되는데 고체의 변형이 거의 없이 유체만 이동할 경우나 고체와 유체의 변형이 없이 간극수압만 존재할 경우에는 요소잠김현상(Element Locking)이 발생하여 혼합유한요소방법으로 해석하기에는 수치적으로 불안정해 진다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 수치적 불안정성을 해결한 스태거드 방법(Park and Tak 2010)을 소개하고 수치적 효율성을 위해 MPI(Message-Passing Interface) 라이브러리를 이용한 병렬해석 기법이 적용된다.
