Abstract: A multi-core processor provides circuitry for jointly scaling the number of operating cores and the amount of resources per core in order to maximize processing performance in a power-constrained environment. Such scaling is advantageously provided without the need for scaling voltage and frequency. Selection of the number of operating cores and the amount of resources per core is made by examining the degree of instruction and thread level parallelism available for a given application. Accordingly, performance counters (and other characteristics) implemented in by a processor may be sampled on-line (in real time) and/or performance counters for a given application may be profiled and characterized off-line. As a result, improved processing performance may be achieved despite decreases in core operating voltages and increases in technology process variability over time.

When a transmission request for content is received, the sub media information file to which a playback request timing for content belongs is selected and transmitted by referring to the meta media information file, and then, a segment in a segment sub group corresponding to the sub media information file is transmitted. Thus, during HTTP streaming, initial transmission delay is reduced, and random access and trick mode playback are possible.
