Kendra: Internet Distribution & Delivery System
نویسنده
چکیده
Kendra’s primary objective is to test the hypothesis that metadata can be used not only to increase searching effectiveness on the Internet, but also to determine optimisation parameters in internet data distribution and delivery systems. Specifically, we are developing a layered metadata reference model to describe multi-media entertainment data and the architectures supporting it. Further, we are building a prototype distributed multi-media delivery system which utilises intelligent, distributed caching mechanisms to improve accessibility, performance and reliability while minimising storage space and network utilisation.

Distributed Adaptive Multimedia Delivery in Kendra
Currently Metadata is used to locate information on the Internet. The Kendra project’s aim is to exploit metadata further by using it to drive the adaptation of Internet data distribution and delivery architectures. The central hypothesis is that metadata not only can increase retrieval effectiveness but also improve delivery performance and address its temporal characteristics. We are developi...
متن کاملKendra: Adaptive Audio Delivery over the Internet
The growth in the use of networks for the real-time delivery of continuous media has focused much attention on QoS management techniques. Distributed continuous media applications often need to operate within strict resource requirements if an acceptable level of service is to be maintained, and therefore the need for QoS monitoring and adaptation arises. This paper presents the adaptive audio ...

This thesis examines the scalability of multicast-based streaming delivery through analytical and empirical evaluation methodologies. Scalability is assessed with respect to two metrics: server bandwidth and network cost. The first metric quantifies the amount of server resources needed to serve a large number of concurrent clients. The second metric quantifies the amount of network resources n...
