Recent advances in network bandwidth and processing power of CPUs has led to the emergence of multimedia streaming frameworks, such as window media player and realvideo. These frameworks typically rely on proprietary stream establishment and control mechanisms to access multimedia context. To facilitate the development of standardsbased distributed multimedia streaming applications, the OMG has defined a CORBA-based specification that stipulates the key interfaces and semantics needed to control and manage audio/video streams. But, this specification does not have a detail of implementation. Particularly, it is not able to provide QoS enabled congestion control scheme for improvement of network efficiency and bandwidth fairness over real network environments. It is a very important and difficult technical issue to provide the streaming transport platform with advanced congestion control scheme. In this paper, we propose an architecture of a distributed transport platform and deal with the design and implementation concept of our proposed architecture. Also, we present a new mechanism to improve streaming utilization by the TCP-friendly streaming scheme. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2003.
