			       ABSTRACT

Mobile computing and multimedia are two emerging trends in computer
systems.  One foreseeable application suggested by these two trends is
the playback of stored video on both mobile devices and conventional
workstations.  A system supporting such an application must provide
performance-guaranteed delivery of video data to different types of
clients, some of which may be mobile.  In this paper, we address some
of the issues involved in supporting such an application, namely the
efficient layout of multiple representations of video data on a file
server and network support foir host mobility.
