Minimizing Bandwidth Requirements for On-Demand Data Delivery

Tags:
bandwidth issues

Overview Two recent techniques for multicast or broadcast delivery of streaming media can provide immediate service to each client request, yet achieve considerable client stream sharing which leads to significant server and network bandwidth savings. This paper considers how well these recently proposed techniques perform relative to each other, and whether there are new practical delivery techniques that can achieve better bandwidth savings than the previous techniques over a wide range of client request rates.
