This paper presents a tool called GISMO (Generator of Internet Streaming Media Objects and workloads). GISMO enables the specification of a number of streaming media access characteristics, including object popularity, temporal correlation of request, seasonal access patterns, user session durations, user inter-activity times, and variable bit-rate (VBR) self-similarity and marginal distributions. The embodiment of these characteristics in GISMO enables the generation of realistic and scalable request streams for use in the benchmarking and comparative evaluation of Internet streaming media delivery techniques. To demonstrate the usefulness of GISMO, we present a case study that shows the importance of various workload characteristics in determining the effectiveness of proxy caching and server patching techniques in reducing bandwidth requirements.
