Dynamic Buffer Allocation in Video-on-Demand Systems

Summary: Dynamic buffer allocation minimizes buffers across partial and full loads, reducing latency and memory vs static schemes. Predict-and-enforce forecasts buffers under inertia; solves the recurrence at init; defers violating requests until assumptions hold. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
