Abstract
This paper presents an adaptive distributed multimedia streaming server architecture (ADMS) which explicitly controls the server-layout. It consists of four types of streaming server components, which all provide dedicated services in an arbitrary number of instances on an arbitrary number of server hosts. Vagabond2 is used as the underlying middleware for component adaptation. It is shown, how the CORBA-based components have to be declared in order to run on top of Vagabond2. Finally, inter-component dependencies are pointed out, which have to be taken into account during component adaptations.
