Shark continuous-media file server
Abstract
Shark is a network file server for digital video and other continuous media data being developed at the IBM Almaden Research Center. The high data rat and stringent time constraints of real-time video place heavy demands on a file server, and Shark implements a variety of novel features that enable it to efficiently handle video data. The Shark server runs on an RS/6000 workstation; implementations of the Shark client run on both AIX and OS/2.
