Περίληψη | Scheduling algorithms for composite multimedia
presentations need to ensure that the user-defined
synchronization constraints for the various presentation
components are met. This requirement gives
rise to task models that are significantly more complex
than the models employed in scheduling theory
and practice. In this paper, we formulate the resource
scheduling problems for composite multimedia objects
and develop novel efficient scheduling algorithms
drawing on a number of techniques from pattern
matching and multiprocessor scheduling. Our
formulation is based on a novel sequence packing
problem, where the goal is to superimpose numeric
sequences (representing the objects’ resource needs
as a function of time) within a fixed capacity bin
(representing the server’s resource capacity). Given
the intractability of the problem, we propose heuristic
solutions using a two-step approach. First, we
present a “basic step” method for packing two composite
object sequences into a single, combined sequence.
Second, we show how this basic step can be
employed within different scheduling algorithms to
obtain a playout schedule for multiple objects. More
specifically, we present an algorithm based on Graham’s
list-scheduling method that is provably nearoptimal
for monotonic object sequences. We also
suggest a number of optimizations on the base listscheduling
scheme. Preliminary experimental results
confirm the effectiveness of our approach. | en |
