An incentive scheduling mechanism for peer-to-peer video streaming

P2P video streaming networks are found as a scalable solution and an alternative for traditional client–server based video streaming over the Internet. One of the significant issues affecting the success of any P2P streaming network is cooperation between peers. Practical observations have proved the prevalence of free riders in P2P networks that degrade their performance. To solve this problem, using incentive mechanisms, which encourage peers to contribute more in the network, is necessary. In this paper, we designed and proposed a distributed and scalable incentive mechanism for mesh based P2P video streaming networks. In the proposed approach the contribution of the peers is measured and maintained in a distributed fashion. Furthermore, we proposed an incentive sending side scheduler in which peers are served based on their contribution in the network. Our simulation evaluations show the efficiency of the proposed approach in improving the overall perceived video quality by the non-free rider nodes and consequently in the whole network.     

File size models for shared content over the BitTorrent Peer-to-Peer network

Peer-to-Peer (P2P) traffic has increased rapidly over the past few years, with file sharing providing the main drive behind such traffic. In this work we perform a measurement study of the content shared over the popular BitTorrent P2P file sharing network. We mathematically model the file size distributions of shared files after categorizing them into Audio, Video, Archive and CD image classes. For each of these categories we look into the most popular shared file formats and investigate their file size statistics. This provides an important milestone to building a realistic simulation framework for P2P systems, and for future analytical modeling of P2P networks.     

Simulating peer-to-peer cloud resource scheduling

Resource scheduling in large-scale distributed systems, such as grids and clouds, is difficult due to the size, dynamism, and volatility of resources. These resources are eclectic and autonomous, and may exhibit different usage policies, levels of participation, capabilities, local load, and reliability. Moreover, applications are likely to exhibit various patterns and levels, and distributed resources may organize into various different overlay topologies for information and query dissemination. Researchers have proposed a wide variety of approaches and policies for mapping offered load onto resources and for solving the various component parts of the scheduling problem. However, production clouds and grids may be underutilized, and may not exhibit the load to effectively characterize all of the scheduling system inputs. The composition of large-scale systems is also changing, potentially to include more individual and peer-to-peer resources. These factors will influence the effectiveness of proposed scheduling solutions. Therefore, a simulation environment is necessary to study different approaches under different scenarios, especially those that are expected, but that are not currently characteristic of existing systems. This article describes a general-purpose peer-to-peer simulation environment that allows a wide variety of parameters, protocols, strategies and policies to be varied and studied. To provide a proof of concept, utilization of the simulation environment is presented in a large-scale distributed system problem that includes a core model and related mechanisms. In particular, this article presents a definition and possible peer-to-peer solutions for the large-scale scheduling problem. Moreover, this article describes a general simulation model, some policies that can be varied, an implementation, and some sample results.

Organisation and management of shared documents in super-peer networks based semantic hierarchical cluster trees

A super-peer semantic network defines the semantic groups that client peers and their super peers use to connect with each other according to the semantic similarity of shared documents in peers. This will result in a query that can be evaluated locally thus reducing query process time and the amount of communication required to obtain related data. In this study, new algorithms are proposed to arrange shared documents in peers into hierarchical cluster tree structures, and links will be set up to connect semantically related super peers. During query evaluation, only related peers will be searched thus the complexity of computing is significantly reduced. Consideration is also given to automatically deciding the threshold for clustering and the construction and other essential operations for hierarchical cluster trees. The experiment results illustrate the features of the approach developed in this study.
