  Abstract

As there has been much demands for processing multimedia data, a storage manger for multimedia data makes much effects on system performance. Because the size of multimedia data is usually very large, disk I/O for the data consumes much time and causes the system performance to be decreased. Therefore, it makes a better effect on system performance that a multimedia data storage manger decreases its I/O by the buffer management of multimedia data. This paper proposes a buffer management technique which allocates the buffer to be equal to its corresponding segment which consists of physically continuous disk page set and is disk management unit for multimedia data in many multimedia data storage manager. As the size of buffer varies, it also proposes a buffer replacement policy which consider not only reference behavior of buffer but also buffer size. The proposed multimedia data buffer management technique is implemented in KORED/storm which is a storage for multimedia data.
