| Popis: | 91 Currently there are three popular multi-media players - Windows Media Player published by Microsoft Company, RealOne Player published by Real Company, and QuickTime Player published by Apple Company. Because the document of QuickTime file format and the source code of QuickTime Streaming Server are opened and easy to acquire, QuickTime Player is thus worth to be researched further. This paper first describes the execution flow of the QTSS and related streaming protocol. Then we design the architecture of a PC Cluster-Based QTSS-compatible Streaming Server. The purpose of this design is providing scalable, stable and efficient streaming service so that users can play movies with high quality by the QuickTime Player. Finally we implement the server and test it. The framework of the server we designed has three important parts - the hardware architecture formed by the cluster system, the processing architecture of the packages transferred between clients and the server, and the software architecture supporting working mechanism of important components. We expand the three parts of the framework in this paper and test and analyze the performance of the server to prove the feasibility of this framework. |
