Utilizing Fragmented Bandwidth in a Staggered Striping Multimedia System

چکیده
In this paper, we discuss the use of fragmented bandwidth to improve the performance of staggered striping in a multimedia system. It is observed that potential disruptions can occur when nonconsecutive idle disks are used for displaying multimedia objects. We have identified useful retrieval patterns and shown that with proper selections of fragmented disks and a simple buffering scheme, disruptions can be easily eliminated.
