Summary :

We study the user reneging behavior in a hybrid Multimedia-on-Demand (MoD) system, which provides both interactive and batch services. Reneging happens when users become reluctant to wait for a batch service and quit the service. They will either join the interactive service or quit the system. In this letter, the analytical model for the MoD system with user reneging behavior is provided. Numerical results show that the reneging behavior has a significant impact on system performance. Therefore, careful consideration on reneging behavior should be made for designing a MoD system.
