Abstract: A video on demand system includes one or more hybrid fiber coax access networks connecting set top units to corresponding head end units. The head end unit for an access network is connected to an asynchronous transfer mode wide area network (ATM WAN). A hierarchical system of video servers, including at least one center server and at least one local server, or cache node, are also connected to the ATM WAN. When a user wishes to select a video, a service control unit coupled to the ATM WAN generates a selection list of proposed videos for which server and network resources are available to immediately serve the user-selected video. The service control unit determines whether server and network resources are available by sending separate queries to server and network resources management control units. Alternatively, the service control unit may generate the selection list based on whether the probability of a particular video being immediately served is greater than a threshold.

Abstract: A notification parameter file, which time-sequentially shows a characteristic of the transmission rate change corresponding to the durable time of a traffic, is notified to a network from a server comprising a storage medium storing data having a traffic characteristic ensured at a transmission starting time. The network adds the characteristic of the transmission rate change designated by the notified parameter to the traffic characteristic already admitted so as to determine whether or not the traffic is admitted. If the traffic can be admitted, the network allocates a transmission bandwidth resource to the sever based on the characteristic of the transmission rate change designated by the notified parameter.

Abstract: Apparatus for attaching tag pins prevents oscillation of a tag pin group several times as long as an ordinary tag pin group.
