PLI: A New Framework to Protect Digital Content for P2P Networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we first propose a novel Public License Infrastructure (PLI) that uses cryptographic threshold secret sharing schemes to provide decentralized public license services for the Digital Rights Management (DRM). This distributed PLI replaces the centralized license server in a conventional DRM system. PLI offers many advantages such as intrusion and fault tolerance, flexibility, scalability, reliability, high availability. We then propose a PLI-based DRM system to provide content protection and digital rights management for users of Peer-to-Peer (P2P) networks. This DRM system is especially useful for small content providers such as peers in a P2P network who cannot afford the conventional server/client based DRM system and traditional distribution channels.

Gaining Intuition through a Peer-to-Peer Comparison Framework
We propose an analysis framework for peer-to-peer (P2P) networks and use it to compare a few optimal content distribution strategies. We propose new strategies and obtain bounds on the performance of any P2P network depending on individual peer behavior. The analysis provides insights on how P2P networks perform when dealing with flash crowds.
متن کاملA 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...

متن کاملA Simulation Framework for Schema-Based Query Routing in P2P-Networks
Current simulations of P2P-networks don’t take any kind of schemas into account. We present a simulation-framework and first results for query routing based on extensible schema information to describe peer content, providing more value than simple categorizations like the filename as abstraction for an MP3-song. Using different parameterization, we compare the impact of introducing the HyperCu...
متن کاملA Genetic Programming-based trust model for P2P Networks
Abstract— Peer-to-Peer ( P2P ) systems have been the center of attention in recent years due to their advantage . Since each node in such networks can act both as a service provider and as a client , they are subject to different attacks . Therefore it is vital to manage confidence for these vulnerable environments in order to eliminate unsafe peers . This paper investigates the use of genetic ...
