Because of user mobility, highly dynamic, error-prone wireless channels, the QoS control for mobile Peer-to-Peer (MP2P) streaming media has to face considerable challenges. Given to the advantages of policy management, we develop a policy-based QoS control (PBQC) architecture to provide QoS assurance dynamically and automatically in mobile network environment. And we also propose a MP2P streaming...
As VoIP applications become increasingly popular, voice quality remains the user's biggest concern. Peer-to-Peer network can potentially obtain qualified relay nodes (QRNs) to make path switching when the QoS of a default path degrades. Locating quality relay nodes rapidly and inexpensively however is a very challenging task. In this paper, we design and develop a sophisticated system to take snapshots...
The Hybrid CDN-P2P architecture, or HCDN, which combines the complementary advantages of CDN and P2P networks, has been proposed to reduce the deployment cost and to improve the quality of service in file sharing and video streaming applications. A replica placement algorithm (RPA) decides where to replicate the specific data. Existing RPAs for pure CDN do not work efficiently in the HCDN architecture...
In Peer-to-peer (P2P) IPTV networks, jitter rate is one of the most important metrics for Quality of Service. In this paper, we develop a new approach to estimate jitter rate during playback. Unlike traditional approaches that focus on the download speed, our method relies on the distribution of peer download latencies. We demonstrated how to apply the proposed methodologies in a real-life environment...
CDN (Content Delivery Network) and P2P (Peer-to-Peer) are two dominant technologies in large-scale content distribution. However, they have their own advantages and disadvantages. In this paper, an efficient hierarchical content distribution scheme is proposed, integrating the traditional CDN and centralized P2P. In our approach, content distribution is divided into two stages. In the CDN-level core...
A content delivery network (CDN) is expected to provide high performance content delivery, which requires scalable infrastructure to achieve global coverage. The provision of such infrastructure may form a substantial entry barrier for new CDN providers, as well as affecting commercial viability of the existing ones. Peering of CDNs can be a way to allow dynamic infrastructural cooperation between...
