Abstract :
This paper introduces a new batching policy, called look-ahead-maximize-batch (LAMB), for reducing the bandwidth demand of video servers. LAMB maximizes the number of users admitted in a window, which includes the reneging time of all pending requests at that scheduling time. LAMB admits a greater number of users than other existing batching policies. Furthermore, the benefits of integrating batching and piggybacking is analyzed
