Prefetch Agent: Virtual Internet Based on CATV
نویسندگان
چکیده
Internet provides an interactive mode for information retrieval. But its bandwidth is narrow. TV can provide broadband service. Usually, it is not interactive. In China, the CATV (CAble TeleVision) is very popular and is mainly running in one-way mode. It is expensive to rebuild the CATV from one-way to two-way. Using Prefetch System, we can achieve the virtual Internet and virtual two-way communication through CATV.

Protocol for a Distributed Switching Interactive Catv Network
In this report, we present a fast switching network protocol for a distributed switching two-way interactive CATV system. The backbone network protocol takes advantage of the tree topology of the CATV network to reduce the processing time and memory requirements at the intermediate nodes. Backbone virtual circuit switching is assumed. The concept of fixed hierarchical logical channel number is ...

The project of interconnecting CATV in Hyogo Prefecture, Japan has started since March, 1998. In this project, there are three CATV companies in Hanshin area; Kobe, Nishinomiya and Amagasaki. An ATM switch is equipped in each company and these CATVs are connected serially in the above order. Each company provides the video service to the rest of companies using the MPEG2 over ATM. In the servic...
متن کاملOn Anthropomorphism in Technology-Enhanced Language Learning: Does Modality Matter in Agent-Based Multimedia Instruction on L2 Idioms?
The present study aimed to satisfy a twofold purpose: On the one hand, it sought to verify the postulation that agent-based instruction could offer a compromise approach to teaching L2 idioms where form and meaning would be equally emphasized during instruction. Given that anthropomorphism has not been much under scrutiny, this research, on the other hand, sought to ascertain whether learning a...

® This work has been partially funded through a research course release program from the College of Business Abstract: Hybrid Fiber-Coax based CATV networks has the potential for two-way data services. Such network providers are presently re-inventing the CATV network to provide Internet access. This paper presents a simulation study of the dynamic behavior of TCP over HFC cable modem networks....
متن کاملWeb prefetching in a mobile environment
Prefetching is one of the most popular techniques for dealing with the slow access speed of the World Wide Web. To provide a mobile user with effective real time online prefetching requires that the prefetch decision is able to adapt to different network systems. This article describes an adaptive network prefetch scheme which accomplishes this task. The basic scheme is comprised of a predictio...
