Machine Learning-based Stable P2P IPTV Overlay

Construction of attack-resilient and efficient overlay topologies for large-scale P2P-based IPTV infrastructures

Measuring P2P IPTV Systems

P2P IPTV systems start to be very popular on the Internet. Measuring the impact they have on the network and understanding their behavior is an important field. Available applications are based on proprietary solutions, thus traffic analysis is the only feasible way to identify the mechanisms used to get video streams. In this context, during the 2006 FIFA World Cup, we performed an extensive m...

Key Management for Overlay-based IPTV Content Delivery

An overlay-based IPTV content delivery is a relatively new type of content delivery in which user devices such as set-top boxes are connected with one another to form a dynamic, virtual delivery path. In the network, each overlay node forwards data, which one has received from another overlay node. To ensure security of the IPTV content delivered through the overlay, we propose a new key manage...

IPTV-RM: A Resources Monitoring Architecture for P2P IPTV Systems

Resources monitoring is an important problem of the overall efficient usage and control of P2P IPTV systems. The resources of IPTV can include all distributing servers, programs and peers. Several researches have tried to address this issue, but most of them illuminated P2P traffic characterization, identification and user behavior. The main contributions of this paper are twofold. Firstly, a r...

A QoS-based P2P Streaming for Ubiquitous Personal IPTV

In this paper, a P2P(Peer-to-Peer) streaming approach is proposed for the implementation of ubiquitous personal IPTV systems which allow any Internet users with proper network connections to be able to create their own IPTV channels for any other Internet users. The personal IPTV can be applied to various community applications including highly interactive applications which may require differe...
