9. Niec, Fudan University, ShangHai, China 2.Drawback of CDN Although CDN is an effective means of multimedia information access and delivery, there are several barriers to making CDN a more common service: Big cost Bad scalability Complicated replication integrity.

10. Niec, Fudan University, ShangHai, China 3. Emergence of Grid Delivery The combination of the grid technology and CDN technology has produced a novel technology —— grid delivery. Grid delivery is an emerging technology that enables the distribution of rich media throughout a bandwidth- constrained network.

Niec, Fudan University, ShangHai, China 5.Grid Delivery Technology 5.4 XML Delivery Security A secure, managed delivery system must satisfy the following security requirements :  (1)Access Control - The delivery system must provide an access control mechanism that controls access to the content in the network and also provides controls over who is authorized to publish content to the network. This system must work with an enterprise's existing security infrastructure and be integrated with a central directory system to facilitate administration and maintenance of users and groups.  (2)Network Security - The delivery system must ensure that files are not delivered to unauthorized users, and that attackers cannot infiltrate the system itself.  (1)Access Control - The delivery system must provide an access control mechanism that controls access to the content in the network and also provides controls over who is authorized to publish content to the network.

29. Niec, Fudan University, ShangHai, China 7. The Challenges and Future Prospect (2) As content becomes more digital, locating and managing the most atomic elements of that content for potentially millions of simultaneous users will be an exponentially difficult challenge to address. Structured content such as XML-defined contexts combined with a strict adherence to the practices associated with many commercial content management systems will help alleviate some of this burden. But the sheer volume and diversity of digital content types — text, image, audio, and video, each with their own variety of file formats — will demand a more flexible solution with massive computational capacity. This is one of the problems that Grid Delivery had to solve in the recent future.

The Challenges and Future Prospect (3) Grid Delivery promises to be a viable solution for distributing on-demand streaming content and other large files directly to end-user systems. Broadcasting live, concurrent, real-time streams using a grid delivery network is possible, but has not yet proven to be scalable. Therefore, researching and developing real- time grid streaming delivery technology is a great challenge. (4) Grid Delivery technologies offer an advantage for storing and retrieving large datasets efficiently, but that it remains a question whether the Grid is beneficial for storing and managing large numbers of files that vary greatly in size.

The Challenges and Future Prospect (5) the next Globus Toolkit upgrade (3.0) — to be rolled out over the course of 2003 — will incorporate Open Grid Services Architecture (OGSA), providing standardized discovery, management, and monitoring facilities for coordinating multiple Web services and provisioning their associated resources. While Globus Toolkit 3 marks a milestone, there is still a long way to go before the ability to access distributed computation and resource is as straightforward as access to the Web.
