Abstract

In video-on-demand multimedia systems, the data has to be delivered to the consumer at regular intervals to deliver smooth playback of video streams. A video-on-demand server has to schedule the service of individual streams to ensure such a smooth delivery of video data. We will present scheduling solutions for individual components of service in a multiprocessor based video server.
