| Abstract: | Video-over-IP applications have recently attracted a large number of users on the Internet. Traditional client-server based
video streaming solutions incur expensive bandwidth provision cost on the server. Peer-to-Peer (P2P) networking is a new paradigm
to build distributed network applications. Recently, several P2P streaming systems have been deployed to provide live and
on-demand video streaming services on the Internet at low server cost. In this paper, we provide a survey on the existing
P2P solutions for live and on-demand video streaming. Representative P2P streaming systems, including tree, multi-tree and
mesh based systems are introduced. We describe the challenges and solutions of providing live and on-demand video streaming
in P2P environment. Open research issues on P2P video streaming are also discussed.
