Abstract:Today's technology offers easy access to multimedia services through high-speed communication networks. A Video-on-Demand (VoD) service allows customers to connect to an on-line video server and asynchronously watch videos. A Video-on-Demand system is typically implemented by Client-Server architecture. This paper presents a scheme of channel allocation based on priority of the requested video, to increase efficient channel utilization and lower the download time. This allocation scheme shows better performance when compared to conventional way of allocating channels.
