Abstract

The area of multimedia services in network environments is one of the most rapidly expanding fields in today's technological world. The demands on the actual multimedia servers and networks are reaching their limits.

The objective of this study is to develop a high performance continuous media server, based on a distributed memory parallel computing system, that can deliver continuous media streams, e.g. video and audio information to a large number of clients in an Internet/ Intranet environment.

This work was partly supported by the EC ACTS project SIGMA (Scalable Interactive Continuous Media Server — Design and Application), No. AC071
