Abstract:
A method for determining a source and a transmission path to provide content includes receiving a message comprising at least one of channel information of a link between a request device which requests content download and a central management device, available resource amount information of a candidate device, channel information of a link between the candidate device and the central management device, and channel information of a link between the request device and one candidate device. The method also includes determining a source device and the transmission path for providing the content to the request device using an available resource amount of the candidate device, a data rate of the link between the request device and the central management device, a data rate of the link between the request device and the candidate device, and a data rate of the link between the candidate device and the central management device.
Abstract:
A cloud service system includes at least one user device, a plurality of clouds for providing different cloud services, and a gateway connected between the user device and the clouds. The gateway selects at least one of the clouds according to predefined Service Level Agreement (SLA) information, and stores content provided from the user device to the selected cloud.
Abstract:
According to one embodiment, a scheduling method for load balancing in an electronic device such as a server when performing multiple transcoding operations includes performing a first transcoding operation in order to transmit at least one moving image file to a first terminal. The server receives a request from a second terminal to transmit at least one moving image file while performing the first transcoding. The server performs a second transcoding operation in order to transmit the requested moving image file to the second terminal. The server monitors output frame rates of the first transcoding operation and the second transcoding operation, to control the output frame rates.

Abstract:
In one embodiment, a distributed transcoding method using a plurality of servers includes receiving a request for a first video file from a first terminal, distributing and requesting a first transcoding of the first video file to at least two second servers according to performance rates of the second servers, before receiving the first video file with the completed first transcoding completed from the second server, receiving a request for a second video file from a second terminal, and distributing and requesting a second transcoding of the second video file to the second servers according to the performance rates of the second servers.
Abstract:
A privacy protection policy is present in a content sharing system. A method for managing contents in a content sharing system includes receiving a content download request from a first account through a first device; and determining whether to carry out the download by considering at least one of a sharing range of a download-requested content, a content access right of the first account, a content access right of an owner account of the first device, a sharing range of a download folder, and sharing acceptance or rejection of an owner of the content.

Abstract:
An embodiment provides a distributed transcoding method using a plurality of servers. The method includes receiving a request for a first video file from a first terminal. The method also includes segmenting the video file based on a play time of at least portion of the video file and a performance rate of a plurality of second servers. The method also includes transmitting the segmented video file to the plurality of second servers, which includes transmitting the segmented video file of a greater size to the second server having a higher performance among the plurality of second servers and transmitting the segmented video file having a smaller size to the server having a lower performance among the plurality of second servers. The method also includes receiving a transcoded video file from the plurality of second servers. The method also includes transmitting the transcoded video files to the first terminal.
