This paper discusses the design and implementation of a video server which uses tertiary device, such as magneto-optical jukebox or tape library, as a source of media archiving. In order to handle the tertiary device in the framework of disk-based stream service model, a sophisticated streaming model is required for server and it should consider the device-specific performance characteristics of tertiary storage. We have carefully designed the streaming mechanism for server whose key functionalities include stream scheduling, disk caching and admission control. The proposed system has been implemented on Windows 2000 platform which is equipped with a magneto-optical jukebox. The design principles of the server are validated with the experiments and the performance characteristics is analyzed.

Video proxy server which is located near clients can store the frequently requested video data in storage space in order to minimize initial latency and network traffic significantly. However, due to the limited storage space in video proxy server, an appropriate video selection method is needed to store the videos which are frequently requested by users. Thus, we present a virtual caching technique to efficiently store the video in video proxy server. For this purpose, we employ a virtual memory in video poky server. If the video is requested by user, it is loaded in virtual memory first and then, delivered to the user. A video which is loaded in virtual memory is deleted or moved into the storage space of video poxy sewer depending on the request condition. In addition, virtual memory is divided into each segment area in order to store the segments efficiently and to avoid the fragmentation. The simulation results show that the proposed method performs better than other methods in terms of the block hit rate and the number of block deletion.

The rapid growth of high speed multimedia services demands the large capacity of the server's storage that maintains the multimedia contents. Among the server's devices, the low I/O speed and physical or logical failure of storage device decrease the total performance of system. The continuous increase of multimedia contents require the flexibility of storage capacity. In order to solve the these problems, we propose the uses of software RAID and LVM techniques that provide the performance improvement and reliability of storage device and the flexibility of storage device respectively. In the LINUX 2.4 kernel, we implemented the reliable and flexible storage device and evaluated the performance of it.

Data deduplication is a common used technology in backup systems and cloud storage to reduce storage costs and network traffic. To preserve data privacy from servers or malicious attackers, there has been a growing demand in recent years for individuals and companies to encrypt data and store encrypted data on a server. In this study, we introduce two cryptographic primitives, Convergent Encryption and Message-Locked Encryption, which enable deduplication of encrypted data between clients and a storage server. We analyze the security of these schemes in terms of dictionary and poison attacks. In addition, we introduce deduplication systems that can be implemented in real cloud storage, which is a practical application environment, and describes the proof of ownership on client-side deduplication.

For real-time interactive multimedia operations, such as video uploading, video play, fast-forward, and fast-rewind, solid state disk (SSD)-based storage systems for video streaming servers are becoming more important. Random access rates in storage systems increase significantly with the number of users; it is thus difficult to simultaneously serve many users with HDD-based storage systems, which have low random access performance. Because there is no mechanical operation in NAND flash-based SSDs, they outperform HDDs in terms of flexible random access operation. In addition, due to the multichannel architecture of SSDs, they perform similarly to HDDs in terms of sequential access. In this paper, we propose a new SSD-based storage system for interactive media servers. Based on the proposed method, it is possible to maximize the channel utilization of the SSD's multichannel architecture. Accordingly, we can improve the performance of SSD-based storage systems for interactive media operations.

In this paper, for continuous media access operations performed by Clustered Continuous Media Storage Server (CCMSS) system, we present the analytical model based on the open queueing network, which considers simultaneously two critical delay factors, the disk I/O and the internal network, in the CCMSS system. And we derive by using the analytical model the stochastic model for the total service delay time in the system. Next, we propose the integrated stochastic admission control model for the CCMSS system, which estimate the maximum number of admittable service requests at the allowable service failure rate by using the derived stochastic model and apply the derived number of requests in the admission control operation. For the performance evaluation of the proposed model, we evaluated the deadline miss rates by means of the previous stochastic model considering only the disk I/O and the propose stochastic model considering the disk I/O and the internal network, and compared the values with the results obtained from the simulation under the real cluster-based distributed media server environment. The evaluation showed that the proposed admission control policy reflects more precisely the delay factors in the CCMSS system.

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.

In this paper, we devise both methods supporting interactive VCR-like functions for MPEG stream and minimizing the storage space. Specifically, we proposed both methods to efficiently stripe MPEG stream into multiple disks, and an access strategy to retrieve the distributed streams over the disks. To accurately locate the streams to be referred to, we introduce a table indexing the location. When client request Fast Forward(FF)/Fast Backward(FB), VOD(Video on Demand) server refer to this index table supporting FF/FB functions. Experimental result shows that the proposed method can reduce the additional storage space needed when VOD server services FF/FB functions.

Real-time applications as multimedia file transfer, it is necessary to use a disk array as a system. For Providing requested service to much more clients at the same time in a multimedia storage server considerable varied strategies in a several parts. But especially it is important to various parameters for disk array such as relation of striping block size as a system environmental characteristics of video data. In this paper we evaluated the suitable storage system architecture implementing them applying synthetically generated workloads that varied in the parameters interest in real environment of multimedia server.
