Abstract

Improvements in disk speed have not kept up with improvements in processor and memory speed. Conventional storage techniques, in the face of multimedia data, are inefficient and/or inadequate. An efficient multimedia object allocation strategy is presented. We describe a multimedia object model, the object and storage device characteristics, and the fragmentation strategy. A bipartite graph approach is used for mapping fragments to storage devices and a cost value is used to determine an efficient allocation of an object and to balance the loads on the devices.
