Opening Up iTunes U
Udell, Jon
InfoWorld; 2/6/2006, Vol. 28 Issue 6, p42-42, 1p
The article presents the experience of the author in accessing the faculty lectures being offered by Stanford University in Palo Alto, California as free podcasts in Apple iTunes Music Store. Podcasting is based on open, Hypertext Transfer Protocol and really simple syndication, and vendor-neutral MP3 standards. But Apple's iTunes U is quite a walled garden. Among mainstream programs, only the iTunes client can download the talks. Among mainstream players, only iTunes, QuickTime, and the iPod can play them. When the author tried to publish the URL of one of the Stanford podcasts to expose it to various collaborative processes, linking, blogging, tagging, playlisting, he was stunned to discover that iTunes would not permit him to capture the URL.

An online video placement policy based on bandwidth to space ratio (BSR)
Asit Dan and Dinkar Sitaram
Proceedings of the 1995 ACM SIGMOD international conference on Management of data
1995, Pages: 376 - 385
In a video-on-demand server, resource reservation is required to guarantee continuous delivery. Hence any given storage device (or a striping group treated as a single logical device) can serve only up to a fixed number of client access streams. Each storage device is also limited by the number of video files it can store. For the reasons of availability, incremental growth, and heterogeneity, there may be multiple storage devices in a video server environment. Hence, one or more copies of a particular video may be placed on different storage devices. Since the access rates to different videos are not uniform, there may be load imbalance among the devices. In this paper, we propose a dynamic placement policy (called the Bandwidth to Space Ratio (BSR) Policy) that creates and/or deletes replica of a video, and mixes hot and cold videos so as to make the best use of bandwidth and space of a storage device. The proposed policy is evaluated using a simulation study.
