Abstract(in English) In this paper, we propose a system for supporting simultaneous watching of locally stored videos among remote users. There exist on-line video services such as YouTube, Nico Douga, etc. and several existing studies for efficient video delivery within limited network resources. However, there exist no studies which support creation of the groups for simultaneous watching of videos, where the groups are organized based on the agreement between parameters on "when and what to watch with whom." In this paper, we propose a method for creating groups for simultanous watching, which increase the satisfaction degree among users as much as possible. For this purpose, we should consider the following challenges: (1) how to propagate the information such as the identifiers of locally stored videos, spare time for watching videos, etc.; and (2) how to match between users to realize high satisfaction degrees of users. To solve (1), we propagate the information among users who share common interests using the Twitter, which is one of the famous SNS. To solve (2), we calculate the optimal groups for simultaneous watching based on the users' information about the videos of interest, the network environment (e.g., bandwidth), and the relationship with other users on SNS.
