Abstract

In this paper, we discuss the use of fragmented bandwidth to improve the performance of the staggered striping in a multimedia system. It is observed that potential disruptions can occur when non-consecutive 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.
