Smoothing and Prefetching Video from Distributed Servers
Video prefetching has been proposed recently for the transmission of variable-bit-rate(VBR) video over a packetswitched network. The objective of these protocols is to prefetch fu...

Providing Interactive Video on Demand Services in Distributed Architecture
True VoD systems provide interactive on-demand video service by allocating each client a dedicated stream. Such a scheme is inefficient when the system has a large number of users...

Accurately Modeling Workload Interactions for Deploying Prefetching in Web Servers
Although Web prefetching is regarded as an effective method to improve client access performance, the associated overhead prevents it from being widely deployed. Specifically, a ...

On the Design of Prefetching Strategies in a Peer-Driven Video on-Demand System
In this paper, we examine the prefetching strategies in a peerdriven video on-demand system. In our design, each video is encoded into multiple low bit-rate substreams and copies ...
