Abstract
We consider a video-on-demand system in which multiple copies of each movie file are kept in separate disks. Various schemes for file allocation and retrieval are considered and compared. We have introduced a certain easy-to-implement scheme that requires 15% more storage than another certain harder-to-implement scheme.
