Online video sharing and social networking are self-fertilizing speedily in today’s Internet. Online social network users are flooding more video contents among each other. A fascinating development as it is, the operational challenge in previous video streaming systems persists, i.e., the large server load required for topping of the systems. Exploring the unique advantages of a social networking based video streaming system; it advocate utilizing social reciprocities among peers with social relationships for efficient involvement incentivization and development, so as to enable high quality video streaming with low server cost. Then why only video: because more people prefer watching videos. Videos induce people to stay longer on websites. People remember videos. It achievement social reciprocity with two give-and-take ratios at each peer: (1) peer contribution ratio (PCR), which calculates the reciprocity level between a couple of social friends, and (2) system contribution ratio (SCR), which records the give-and-take level of the user to & from the entire system. It expect efficient Peer to Peer mechanisms for video streaming using the two ratios, where each user optimally chooses which other users to seek relay help from and help in relaying video streams, respectively, based on combined evaluations of their social relationship and historical reciprocity levels. This design helps to gain effective incentives for resource contribution, load balancing among relay peers, and efficient social-aware resource scheduling, security to the videos and high prefetching accuracy.
