If loading is performed at the time of the request, the user experiences a delay before s/he can access the blade. This delay may be several minutes long, depending on the type of image requested.

متن کاملPreloading Schemes for the PASM Parallel Memory System
Parallel processing systems, such as PASM, employ a large number of primary memory modules. A memory system organization using parallel secondary storage devices and double-buffered primary memories has been devised for PASM in order to prevent primary/secondary memory transfers from becoming a bottleneck. To efficiently use the memory system, it is desirable to overlap the operation of the par...
متن کاملA Stream Tapping Protocol with Partial Preloading
Stream tapping–also known as patching–can reduce the bandwidth requirements of video-on-demand services by allowing new customer requests to “tap” the data streams of other requests for the same video. Previous studies have shown that stream tapping works best when the request arrival rate does not exceed ten to twenty requests per hour for a two-hour video. At higher arrival rates, it performs...
