Massive data delivery in unstructured peer-to-peer networks with network coding

With more and more multimedia applications on the Internet, such as IPTV, bandwidth becomes a vital bottleneck for the booming of large scale Internet based multimedia applications. Network coding is recently proposed to take advantage to use network bandwidth efficiently. In this paper, we focus on massive multimedia data, e.g. IPTV programs, transportation in peer-to-peer networks with network coding. By through study of networking coding, we pointed out that the prerequisites of bandwidth saving of network coding are: 1) one information source with a number of concurrent receivers, or 2) information pieces cached at intermediate nodes. We further proof that network coding can not gain bandwidth saving at immediate connections to a receiver end; As a result, we propose a novel model for IPTV data transportation in unstructured peer-to-peer networks with network coding. Our preliminary simulations show that the proposed architecture works very well.<br /

A parallel downloading algorithm for redundant networks

In this paper, we study the downloading mechanism of BitTorrent (or BT), a P2P based popular and convenient parallel downloading software tool, point out some of its limitations, and propose an algorithm to improve its performance. In particular, we address the limitations of BT by using neighbours in P2P networks to resolve the redundant copies problem and to optimise the downloading speed. Our preliminary experiments show that the proposed enhancement algorithm works well

Reliable downloading algorithms for bittorrent-like systems

In this paper we study a reliable downloading algorithm for BitTorrent-like systems, and attest it in mathematics. BitTorrent-like systems have become immensely popular peer-to-peer file distribution tools in the internet in recent years. We analyze them in theory and point out some of their limitations especially in reliability, and propose an algorithm to resolve these problems by using the redundant copies in neighbors in P2P networks and can further optimize the downloading speed in some condition. Our preliminary simulations show that the proposed reliable algorithm works well; the improved BitTorrent-like systems are very stable and reliable.<br /
