TL;DR
The overall results indicate that with limited resources, the use of phase-based striping method with replication is preferable under heavy loads.
Abstract
The storage structure of videos on disks affects the number of concurrent users a video-on-demand system can support and hence the average waiting time. In this pafurther improve the server performance by over 25%. The overall results indicate that with limited resources, the use of phase-based striping method with replication is preferable under heavy loads.

Scheduling policies for an on-demand video server with batching
610 Citations1994A. Dan, Dinkar Sitaram +1 more
It is shown that an FCFS policy that schedules the movie with the longest outstanding request can perform better than the MQL policy that chooses the film with the maximum number of outstanding requests.
The Computer JournalThe Design of a Storage Server for Continuous Media
187 Citations1993P. Lougher, Doug Shepherd
The design and implementation of a file server which has been specially optimized for continuous media, which addresses critical performance issues including the use of disk striping to provide high bandwidth, optimized disk layouts, and hard real-time disk scheduling.
A statistical admission control algorithm for multimedia servers
161 Citations1994Harrick M. Vin, Pawan Goyal +1 more
This paper presents an admission control algorithm for multimedia servers which exploits the variation in access times of media blocks from disk as well as the variations in client load induced by variable rate compression schemes, and provides statistical service guarantees to each client.
Disk striping in video server environments
119 Citations2002Banu Özden, R. Rastogi +1 more
This work presents schemes that are based on striping videos across disks in order to effectively utilize disk bandwidth, and shows how an optimal-cost server architecture can be determined if data for a certain prespecified number of videos is to be concurrently retrieved.
Lecture notes in computer scienceDesign and analysis of a grouped sweeping scheme for multimedia storage management
115 Citations1993Philip S. Yu, Mon -Song Chen +1 more
The analysis shows that by properly setting the grouping factor the optimized GSS scheme can lead to substantially lower buffer requirement, particularly when compared with that of the round-robin scheme.

The design and implementation of a frame-based video retrieval and sequencing system (VRSS) designed to support the entire process of video information management: segmenting, indexing, retrieving, and sequencing of video data.
A Low-Cost Storage Server for Movie on Demand Databases
99 Citations1994Banu Özden, A. Biliris +2 more
A low-cost storage architecture for a MOD server that relies principally on disks is presented in order to enable simultaneous access and transmission of “certain” different portions of a movie.

89 Citations1995Craig S. Freedman, David J. DeWitt
It is shown that the SPIFFI video-on-demand system scales nearly linearly as the number of disks, videos, and terminals is increased.

To verify the effectiveness of the storage hierarchy, a queuing network simulation model of the system is constructed based on experimentally measured values, and the average waiting time for each of the three configurations of video programs is analyzed.
