Abstract

Video-on-demand system in which users can request any video through the network at any time is made possible by rapid increase in network bandwidth and capacity of the media server. However true video-on-demand system cannot support all requests since bandwidth requirement is still too demanding. Therefore efficient bandwidth reduction algorithm is necessary. both the piggybacking method and the batching method are novel solutions that can provide more logical number of streams than the physical system can support. Of course each of them has its pros and cons. hence piggybacking with batching-by-size can take advantage of both the schemes. Some parameters such as the size of batch and the size of the catch-up window should be adjusted and order to maximize the bandwidth reduction for piggybacking with batching-by-size method. One of the most important parameters is decided optimally in this paper. Simulation shows that the optimized parameter can achieve considerable reductionand consequently remarkable enhancement in performance.
