Multimedia Storage System Providing QoS in Cloud Based Environment

Abstract

Cloud computing and mobile computing are moderately new trend in Information Technology which are growing rapidly. Mobile devices are replacing personal computers by joining large mobile networks and are effortlessly switching between different network providers. Currently, to maintain network connectivity all the time different service handover mechanisms is used so that cloud services can be accessed by user without any interruption. In this scenario, if user mobility is considered, then he is connected to its local cloud to access the different cloud services. As user is moving from one geographical location to another because of this mobility factor network congestion increases which causes degradation in QoS. For this reason a framework is introduced which will deliver services to the users to improve QoS in order to provide better QoE to the clients. In this paper, we are further developing this framework in which an algorithm is designed in service delivery layer which will help for better solution to the efficient management of network resources while providing a high QoE for the clients. And as the demand for specific services increases in a location, using this framework it will be more efficient to move those services closer to that location. This framework will help to reduce high traffic loads due to multimedia streams and will offer service providers an automated resource allocation and management mechanism for their services.
