Authenticity is then an important aspect of testing since it describes the relationship between the test and the real world. Th...

Techniques for Improving the Capacity of Video-On-Demand Systems

In this paper we present two techniques to improve the capacity of video on demand sysrems. Video on demand is an elecrronic video rental system in which clients requesr and play videos on-demand. Video on demand system can be implemented over an existing cable TV network or an upgraded ADSL network. The two techniques used to improve rhe capacity of video on-demand systems are segmentation and...
