Abstract
Multimedia Messaging Service (MMS) environment should support complete MMS to users at any time and anywhere in different networks. However, the legacy MMS environment has no consideration for streaming transmission. When users require streaming service, the centralized MMS system gets overloaded. Load distribution isn’t provided, which causes deterioration of the network and system performance. Therefore, it can’t offer a simultaneous delivery and a continuous playback of the streaming. Our mechanism uses MMS proxies to reduce the overload in the entire MMS system and MMS agents to deliver faster. The agent selects the optimal proxy among the distributed proxies by using list table about information of proxy state and the list is ordered by immediate update when users request streaming data. Simulation results show immediate update offers load distribution efficiently.
