A Service Architecture for Scalable Distributed Audio System
نویسندگان
چکیده
Present day personal and home hi-fi products are designed to work independently. In the near future these devices will have increased networking capabilities. This connectivity will enable a large number of audio/video (A/V) sources such as CD’s, DVD’s, digital libraries and internet broadcasts to be linked with A/V sinks such as active loudspeakers, recorders and home internet gateways. This paper introduces a service-based, networked multimedia architecture that facilitates the advertisement, discovery and connectivity of audio source and sink services. This architecture provides a scalable and flexible platform for implementing distributed audio environments that supports many file formats and transport protocols.

متن کاملService-Oriented Architecture for Building a Scalable Videoconferencing System
In this paper, we propose a service-oriented architecture to develop a scalable videoconferencing system, GlobalMMCS, based on a publish/subscribe event brokering network. There are two key ideas behind our approach for building a scalable videoconferencing system. First one is to identify and separate tasks performed in a videoconferencing system, and design independent scalable components for...
متن کاملSwitcherland - A Scalable Interconnection Structure for Distributed Computing
This paper describes a scalable interconnection structure for distributed computing systems. The interconnection structure is scalable in that it can serve as an I/O interconnection structure of a workstation as well as a network interconnection structure for a group or cluster of workstations. Switcherland implements a communication model based on a distributed shared memory architecture. With...
