File replication and file consistency maintenance are two important protocols for achieving overall high performance of peer-to-peer file sharing systems. In spite of the significant dependency of consistency maintenance on file replication, there has been little file replication research devoted to tackling the dependency issue. Most traditional file replication protocols focus on improving file...
We propose Streamline, a two-layered architecture designed for media streaming in overlay networks. The first layer is a generic, customizable and lightweight protocol which is able to construct and maintain different types of meshes, exhibiting different properties. We discuss two types of overlay networks and explain how the first layer protocol builds these networks in a distributed manner. The...
In recent years, peer-to-peer (P2P) networks have soared in popularity in the form of file sharing applications. With this popularity comes security implications and vulnerabilities. In this paper we introduce a secure DHT-based routing scheme that has a high resilience against common attacks in order to prevent correct message delivery in DHT-based P2P overlays and presents defenses to these attacks...
There are synergies between mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) and peer-to-peer (P2P) networks. Some previous works consisted on the straight implementation of standard P2P content distribution protocols over MANETs. However, we ponder that such a direct approach may not be the best choice. We propose a novel P2P content distribution protocol for MANETs: peer-to-MANET (P2MAN). P2MAN takes into account...
