Abstract

Within the Future Media Internet, residential gateways, involving overlay network creation, are foreseen to become an efficient alternative solution for content distribution. This poster proposes a new residential gateway middleware approach, called the Home-Box (HB), exploiting an innovative popularity-based and collaborative caching strategy, able to achieve scalable and cost-effective Video-on-Demand (VoD) services. The middleware offers to Content Providers an efficient way to get media content closer to End-Users. Besides, the caching mechanism is coupled with context-aware features in order to select the best serving HBs, leveraging the HB middleware overlay with an overall load-balancing system. The solution has been implemented and deployed in a large scale test bed; results outlines the Home-Box, in collaboration with its neighbors, as a suitable and rightful asset alternative and/or complementarity to existing VoD service infrastructures such as Content Delivery Networks.

Home-Boxes:支持内容交付解决方案的上下文感知分布式中间件

在未来媒体互联网中，住宅网关涉及覆盖网络的创建，预计将成为内容分发的有效替代解决方案。这张海报提出了一种新的住宅网关中间件方法，称为Home-Box (HB)，它利用了一种创新的基于人气和协作的缓存策略，能够实现可扩展和经济高效的视频点播(VoD)服务。中间件为内容提供者提供了一种使媒体内容更接近最终用户的有效方法。此外，缓存机制与上下文感知功能相结合，以便选择最佳服务的HB，利用HB中间件覆盖和整体负载平衡系统。该方案已在大型测试平台上实现并部署;结果概述了Home-Box与其邻居合作，作为现有VoD服务基础设施(如内容交付网络)的合适和合法的资产替代和/或补充。
