This paper presents a Stackelberg game between the tracker and peer of a torrent in a BitTorrent community which incentivizes cooperation amongst peers. We propose a change in the allocation of peers to a peer by tracker and suggest modifications in the allocation algorithm rather than keeping it completely random. By this change the role of tracker in a BitTorrent community is promoted from just...
In a peer to peer system, each entity needs some services from other entities in the network, and is capable of providing services to other entities in the network. For the system to work each entity has to contribute at least as much as it is receiving. But for this to happen, since the services requested and offered are different across entities, the relative values of each service have to be determined...
The past one and a half decades have seen great strides in the field of commercially available distributed computing implementations. The two most popular architectures in the modern world are Peer-to-Peer Systems and Cloud Systems. Peer-to-Peer Systems (P2P) have become very popular in recent times, mainly being used to facilitate file sharing among disparate systems. Another recent trend in modern...
This paper describes a search mechanism for files in an unstructured peer-to-peer network. Most of the existing P2P architectures cannot autonomously locate services on the P2P network. Peers can hardly work and cooperate as a team. Using well-designed agents can improve the efficiency of the operations and data communication in the P2P applications. In the proposed system, agents are residing on...
