Previous real-time disk scheduling algorithms assume that each disk request incurs a disk mechanical operation and only consider how to move the disk head under real-time constrain...
Continuity of stream playback is the crucial constraint in designing a continuous media server. From a distributed memory architectural model developed earlier, we found that ther...
In this paper we present a technique for reducing response delay for web systems, which is based on a proactive cache scheme. It combines predictive pre-fetching and streaming to ...
Streaming media objects have become widely used on the Internet, and the demand of interactive requests to these objects has increased dramatically. Typical interactive requests i...
Many analysis and monitoring applications require the repeated execution of expensive modeling functions over streams of rapidly changing data. These applications can often be exp...
