Modeling and performance analysis of bittorrentlike peer-to-peer networks

by Dongyu Qiu, R. Srikant - In SIGCOMM , 2004
"... In this paper, we develop simple models to study the performance of BitTorrent, a second generation peerto-peer (P2P) application. We first present a simple fluid model and study the scalability, performance and efficiency of such a file-sharing mechanism. We then consider the built-in incentive mec ..."

Search and replication in unstructured peer-to-peer networks

by Qin Lv, Pei Cao, Edith Cohen, Kai Li, Scott Shenker , 2002
"... Abstract Decentralized and unstructured peer-to-peer networks such as Gnutella are attractive for certain applicationsbecause they require no centralized directories and no precise control over network topologies and data placement. However, the flooding-based query algorithm used in Gnutella does n ..."

Secure routing for structured peer-to-peer overlay networks

by Miguel Castro, Peter Druschel, Ayalvadi Ganesh, Antony Rowstron, Dan S. Wallach , 2002
"... Structured peer-to-peer overlay networks provide a sub-strate for the construction of large-scale, decentralized applications, including distributed storage, group com-munication, and content distribution. These overlays are highly resilient; they can route messages correctly even when a large fract ..."

Routing indices for peer-to-peer systems

by Arturo Crespo, Hector Garcia-molina , 2002
"... Finding information in a peer-to-peer system currently requires either a costly and vulnerable central index, or ooding the network with queries. In this paper we introduce the concept of Routing Indices (RIs), which allow nodes to forward queries to neighbors that are more likely to have answers. I ..."

Pastry: Scalable, distributed object location and routing for large-scale peer-to-peer systems

by Antony Rowstron, Peter Druschel , 2001
"... This paper presents the design and evaluation of Pastry, a scalable, distributed object location and routing scheme for wide-area peer-to-peer applications. Pastry provides application-level routing and object location in a potentially very large overlay network of nodes connected via the Internet. ..."

Storage management and caching in PAST, a large-scale, persistent peer-to-peer storage utility

by Antony Rowstron, Peter Druschel , 2001
"... This paper presents and evaluates the storage management and caching in PAST, a large-scale peer-to-peer persistent storage utility. PAST is based on a self-organizing, Internetbased overlay network of storage nodes that cooperatively route file queries, store multiple replicas of files, and cache a ..."

CoolStreaming/DONet: A Data-driven Overlay Network for Peer-to-Peer Live Media Streaming

by Xinyan Zhang, Jiangchuan Liu, Bo Li, Tak-shing Peter Yum - in IEEE Infocom , 2005
"... This paper presents DONet, a Data-driven Overlay Network for live media streaming. The core operations in DONet are very simple: every node periodically exchanges data availability information with a set of partners, and retrieves unavailable data from one or more partners, or supplies available dat ..."

Introducing Tarzan, a Peer-to-Peer Anonymizing Network Layer

by Michael J. Freedman, Emil Sit, Josh Cates, Robert Morris , 2002
"... We introduce Tarzan, a peer-to-peer anonymous network layer that provides generic IP forwarding. Unlike prior anonymizing layers, Tarzan is flexible, transparent, decentralized, and highly scalable. Tarzan achieves these properties by building anonymous IP tunnels between an open-ended set of peers. ..."

The Impact of Caching on BitTorrent-like Peer-to-peer Systems

by Frank Lehrieder, György Dán, Tobias Hoßfeld, Simon Oechsner, Vlad Singeorzan
"... Abstract—Peer-to-peer file-sharing systems are responsible for a significant share of the traffic between Internet service providers (ISPs) in the Internet. In order to decrease their peer-to-peer related transit traffic costs, many ISPs have deployed caches for peer-to-peer traffic in recent years. ..."
