Evaluating P2P Live Streaming Systems: the CNG Case
نویسندگان
چکیده
Many peer-to-peer (P2P) systems have been proposed for the provision of scalable live video streaming services over the Internet. While the literature contains surveys of the architectures of these systems, there is a lack of work on methodologies for their evaluation. We identify the main issues in the evaluation of P2P live streaming systems and use the Community Network Game (CNG) project as an example to illustrate them. The evaluation of the P2P system consists of two phases: a laboratory one using the ns-2 network simulator and an online field test with Massively Multiplayer Online Games (MMOG) players.

Peer-to-Peer Streaming Systems
With advances in the broadband Internet access technology and the coding techniques, video streaming services have become increasingly popular. Traditionally, video streaming services are deployed in the client/server architecture. However, this centralized architecture cannot provide streaming to a large population of users due to the limited upload capacity from the server. Peer-to-Peer (P2P)...

Peer-to-Peer (P2P) Live streaming has become a popular service in the Internet. Recently, what is the upper bound of the streaming rate in a P2P live system becomes an attractive topic. In this report, we investigate the streaming capacity problem in both tree-based and mesh-based P2P live systems. In tree-based P2P live systems, the formulation of the streaming capacity problem has been report...
متن کاملImproving streaming capacity in P2P live streaming systems via resource sharing
Peer-to-Peer (P2P) streaming systems provide a large number of channels to users. The streaming capacity for a channel is defined as the maximum streaming rate that can be received by every user in the channel. In the this paper, we study the streaming capacity problem in both tree-based and mesh-based P2P live streaming systems. In tree-based multi-channel P2P live streaming systems, we propos...
