dc.description.abstract	This Master thesis covers the design and evaluation of a multimedia content provider service. The design is scalable, both by means of storage, bandwidth and user count. To make the system stand out compared to competitors, there has been added design elements like a recommendation engine and a user feedback system. The system has been named SCARF, which is an abbreviation for Scalable CAching layered Recommendation and Feedback powered system. In order to do the evaluation part of the thesis, we have implemented a simulator for the entire system, on which we have executed numerous test runs.	en
