Analytical Framework for Optimizing Weighted Average Download Time in Peer-to-Peer Networks

چکیده
This paper proposes an analytical framework for peer-to-peer (P2P) networks and introduces schemes for building P2P networks to approach the minimum weighted average download time (WADT). In the considered P2P framework, the server, which has the information of all the download bandwidths and upload bandwidths of the peers, minimizes the weighted average download time by determining the optimal transmission rate from the server to the peers and from the peers to the other peers. This paper first defines the static P2P network, the hierarchical P2P network and the strictly hierarchical P2P network. Any static P2P network can be decomposed into an equivalent network of sub-peers that is strictly hierarchical. This paper shows that convex optimization can minimize the WADT for P2P networks by equivalently minimizing the WADT for strictly hierarchical networks of sub-peers. This paper then gives an upper bound for minimizing WADT by constructing a hierarchical P2P network, and lower bound by weakening the constraints of the convex problem. Both the upper bound and the lower bound are very tight. This paper also provides several suboptimal solutions for minimizing the WADT for strictly hierarchical networks, in which peer selection algorithms and chunk selection algorithm can be locally designed.

A Novel Caching Strategy in Video-on-Demand (VoD) Peer-to-Peer (P2P) Networks Based on Complex Network Theory
The popularity of video-on-demand (VoD) streaming has grown dramatically over the World Wide Web. Most users in VoD P2P networks have to wait a long time in order to access their requesting videos. Therefore, reducing waiting time to access videos is the main challenge for VoD P2P networks. In this paper, we propose a novel algorithm for caching video based on peers' priority and video's popula...

The service capacities of a source peer at different times in a peer-to-peer (P2P) network exhibit temporal correlation. Unfortunately, there is no analytical resultwhich clearly characterizes the expected download time from a source peer with stochastic and time-varying service capacity. The main contribution of this paper is to analyze the expected file download time in P2P networks with stoc...

متن کاملOn the expected file download time of the random time-based switching algorithm in P2P networks
The expected file download time of the random time-based switching algorithm for peer selection and file downloading in a peer-to-peer (P2P) network is still unknown. The main contribution of this paper is to analyze the expected file download time of the time-based switching algorithm for file sharing in P2P networks when the service capacity of a source peer is totally correlated over time, n...
متن کاملOn Fairness, Optimal Download Performance and Proportional Replication in Peer-to-Peer Networks
Each peer in a peer-to-peer network, by definition, is both a consumer and a provider of the service. As a consumer, a peer wants to obtain its objects of interest as quickly as possible. However, as a service provider, the peer wants to serve no more than an equitable portion of the total workload. Our first observation in this paper is that if one satisfies the latter criterion of fairness in...
