Abstract
Multimedia Content Delivery Networks (CDN) is used to improve the performance and reliability on Internet. In CDN architecture, the multimedia contents are replicated from the origin server to replica servers in order to improve the performance and minimize the use of network bandwidth. Efficient placing the multimedia contents in CDN is a challenging problem. There are five factors that can be used to determine the placement of multimedia contents, they are bandwidth availability, connection availability, storage availability, CPU availability, and memory availability. In this paper, a Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm is adopted to solve this issue. PSO algorithm uses these five different input parameters as different dimensions. In this five dimension searching space, PSO algorithm can find out the global optimal solution. With this global optimal solution, it is the most appropriate replica server that must place the multimedia content. The simulation results show that the PSO algorithm can achieve a better performance than other algorithms.
