English Abstract
Recent advances in computing, high-speed networks, and data conpression, have made extensible multimédia applications a possible application-domain of the telecommunication sector.
Such applications are characterised by the need to transmit time constrained in^rmation such as, voice and video to viewers, and simultaneous^ provide the huge amount of resources required for their service deliver^?.
□iven the expensive hardware and s©هware needed for such services, simulation environments are needed to predict the behavior of such systems, before an investment on the necessary hardware and ةoهware.
These environments are used to optimise the system’s hardware/so^ware configuration, and to tune resource allocation, before engaging in the service provision.
In this project, we designed and implemented a modular, reusable, hardware neutral, and multi-threaded simulator, based on the object-oriented modeling and design paradigm.
This simulator provides a testing environment necessary for real time servicing systems, and is aimed to serve several multimedia applications, ^^odularity and reusability are enforced by the use of lava development Kit (JDK).
This simulator was applied to a ¥ideo On Demand (VOD) system.
Various workload scenarios have been tested and discussed under several configuration parameters.
Accurate collections of measures and tuning parameters were collected, in order to stud^ system performance and limitations.
The system’s responses under the various scenarios were derived ^om these collections of data.
Several recommendations have been put forward a^ to the hardware and soهwقre configurations, for both the VOD server and the client’s viewing station.
