Recently, VOD market is getting increased and most of public, educational organization, enterprises are providing service as content managing system of WMV standard subordinated to Window OS of Microsoft company. VOD CMS of WMV standard have problem that frequent cut-off, small-size of screen, and image quality which is also chronic problem. In order to solve this problem, technology solving the problem has developed through minimization of buffering time, screen size, high quality sound, and high quality image by image codec and streaming engine which is H. 264. But there are still a problem that systematic management of contents or distribution is difficult. This study expected that there would be a effect preoccupying significant stand of world wide H.264 high quality image mobile VOD managing market by securing domestic on-line VOD contents integrated managing technology by designing system for image VOD contents management having a limit in wmv market and combining H.264 which is new technology.

Recently with the rapid evolution of the mobile computing and communication technologies, mobile VOD service becomes increasingly important for wireless mobile users. The VOD service is being widely used in various areas of application, such as education, entertainment and business, because it provides users convenience in easily having access to video information at any time in any places. However, in reality, the mobile system has many difficulties in providing the smooth VOD service owing to frequent transfers and cutoffs of clients. The importance of a technique to transmit broadcasting is being stressed as a method for providing stabler mobile VOD service to a large number of clients. This paper is aimed at showing how to reduce demands for server bandwidth and delay of earlier service through performance analysis by suggesting an effective VOD broadcasting transmission technique through channel division in the mobile atmosphere. Many researches have been made about regular broadcasting techniques in particular. This study divides the methods used for assigning channels which have been decided by the size of segments into a group of regular channels and assistant channels using wireless gap-fillers to provide effective VOD services to a large number of clients at the mobile environment using small bandwidth resources. The regular channels transfer regular streams, while assistant channels repeatedly transfer the first segment to reduce early service delay time to receive regular streams. In this way, the study suggests a technique to reduce server bandwidth demand and early service delay time. Through the proposed technique, the server bandwidth demand could be reduced by more than 30 percent and the study continuously shows reduced early service delay time through conducting performance analysis.

A VOD server, which is the central component for constructing VOD systems, requires to provide high bandwidth and continuous real-time delivery. It is also necessary to the sophisticated disk scheduling and data placement schemes in VOD sewers. One of the most common problem facing in such a system is the high initial latency time to service multiple users concurrently. In this paper, we propose a dynamic stream merging scheme for reducing the initial latency time in VOD servers. The proposed scheme allows clients to merge streams on a request as long as their requests fall within the reasonable time interval. The basic idea behind the dynamic stream merging is to merge multiple streams into one by increasing the frame rate of each stream. In the performance study, the proposed scheme can reduce the initial latency time under the minimum buffer use and also can enhance the performance of the VOD server with respect to the capacity of user admission.

This paper investigates the relationship between the Pay TV subscriber's genre preference and VOD purchase by analyzing actual purchase data of movie VOD of IPTV subscribers for 8 months. The result shows as follows. First, in case of purchasing movie contents below 4000 won, user's genre preference was higher than that of using contents over 4,000 won. This means the subscribers tend to follow their genre preference when the mass-typed recommendation is limited. Second, those who purchase foreign contents show higher genre preference than those who purchase domestic movies. Third, subscribers who purchase more frequently and much more tend to use more diverse genres. Heavy users or those who have higher willingness to pay would consume more diverse contents. It implies that VOD use would increase by supplying the personal recommendation service based on the subscriber's genre preference.

For VOD systems, it is important to provide QoS to more users under the limited resources. To analyze QoS issues in real environment, we implement clustered VOD server and embedded client system based on the Linux open source platform. The parallel processing of MPEG data, load balancing for nodes and VCR like functions are implemented in the server side. To provide more user friendly interface, the general TV is used for a VOD client's terminal and the embedded board is used supporting for VCR functions. In this paper, we measure the performance of the implemented VOD system under the various user requirement features and evaluate the sources of performance limitations. From these analyses, we propose the dynamic admission control method based on the availability memory and network bandwidth. The proposed method enhances the utilization of the system resource for the more QoS media streams.

Media service model is divided into 3 models that are Client Pull, Server Push, and IPP(Interleaving Pull & Push) model. In most single VOD(Video On Demand) environment, Client Pull model was sufficient to play the movie Because most media contents has a low bitrate and resolution. But according to an increment of the demand of the high definition media, Client Pull model is not sufficient. Parallel VOD environment is made of several of VOD servers and provides the parallel media stream simultaneously for one client. We compared and analyzed the performance of service models with respect to network delay and data size in buffer in the single and parallel VOD environment and we found that IPP service model keeps the least network delay and stable client buffer state in the parallel VOD environment.

This paper proposes a consistency algorithm that is able to serve streaming data efficiently in VOD system. The media data is stripping into several pieces of data by the Round Robin method in order to media data service. The barrier mechanism is changed into the minimum data factor(SH. GOP) in this paper. The shared memory is allocated at one host with one fragment size. Data is combined with RTP packet transmission data format using barrier mechanism. I experiment and program the suggested algorithm on the VOD system.

2008년 IPTV를 시작으로 IP망을 통한 서비스가 본격적으로 시작되었으나 VOD 전송에 있어 대부분의 서비스가 On-demand 형태로 원하는 것을 찾아가서 시청 및 다운로드 받는 형태였다. 시청자 편의와 네트워크의 효율적인 활용을 위해 RSS(Really Simple Syndication)를 활용하여 CE-HTML(Consumer Electronics-HTML)이 탑재된 DTV수신기에 VOD를 전송하는 방법을 소개한다. 본 논문에서는 제안한 전송 기술을 이용하여 시청자는 CE-HTML 브라우저로 RSS 주소를 다운받아 저장하고 삭제하며 DTV 수신기에 설치된 RSS Application 은 저장된 RSS 주소를 활용하여 주기적으로 VOD 데이터를 가져간다. 시청자는 자신이 원하는 VOD가 다운로드 되면 시청한다. 인터넷을 효율적으로 활용하여 DTV 수신기에 풍부한 VOD 서비스를 제공할 수 있는 기술을 제안한다.

본 논문은 단일 VOD 환경에서의 서버/클라이언트 간 데이터 서비스 모델을 분석하고 이를 병렬 VOD 환경에 적용함으로써 보다 나은 사용자 QoS(Quality of Service)를 제공하고자 한다. 이를 위해 단일 VOD 환경에서는 클라이언트가 데이터를 요청하고 서버가 전달해주는 Client Pull 모델과 서버 측에서 일방적으로 데이터를 전달해주는 Server Push 모델을 네트워크상 전달지연 측면에서 분석하고 위 두 모델.을 통합한 IPP(Interleaving Pull & Push) 서비스 모델과 Client Pull 모델을 전달지연과 클라이언트 버퍼 내 데이터 잔여량 측면에서 병렬 VOD 환경에서 적용 및 비교하였다. 시뮬레이션을 통해 병렬 VOD 환경에서 IPP 서비스 모델이 가장 적은 전달지연과 보다 안정적인 클라이언트 버퍼를 유지함을 알 수 있으며 이를 동해 사용자에게 보다 나은 서비스를 제공할 수 있다.

초고속망의 급속한 보급은 인터넷 사용자로 하여금 다양한 형태의 멀티미디어 서비스에 대한 요구를 증가시키고 있다. 하지만 데이터 용량의 기하급수적인 증가는 VOD(Video On Demand) 서비스에 많은 문제를 야기하고 있다. 따라서 이와 같은 문제점을 지닌 병렬 VOD 서버를 개선, 보완할 수 있는 새로운 형태의 P2P 기반 VOD 서버를 본 논문에서 제안하고자 한다. P2P 기반 VOD 서버는 병렬 VOD 서버에 비해 저렴한 구축비용과 용이한 확장성을 제공하며 계층화된 멀티미디어 데이터 서비스를 제공함으로써 다양한 대역폭을 갖고 있는 통신망 환경에서 실시간 멀티미디어 서비스가 가능한 장점을 가지고 있다.
