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.

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.

As network resources have become faster and demands for multimedia service through network have increased, the demand for Media server system has increased. These kinds of media server solve their bottle neck problem of internal storage device by using parallel system which takes advantage of fast network resource. Many vendors have suggested each of their media server system to solve these problem radically, but most of them require major modification of infra component and additional drawback has added. For example, storage mechanism for specific media requires new file system which is totally different from traditional one, and algorithm for enhancing performance may not suit for traditional operating system environment. In this paper, we designed a parallel media server based on web interface of traditional system and implemented a program for media server. Implemented server system performs parallel processing through web interface without any modification of traditional system, and controls which is related to merging load by distributed data is charged only to client and control server and consequently load of storage server can be minimized. And also, data transfer protocol for streaming media includes Retransfer algorithm and client Admission control policy relevant to performance of whole system.

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.
