چکیده
media sharing, peer-to-peer network, digital right management, copyright, incentive Can the media industry profitably use peer-to-peer networks to increase their market? We propose a novel media distribution system called FluidMedia that potentially answers this question. FluidMedia provides a framework within which users can trade in media copyrights legally and remunerate the media provider for these. Furthermore, users are actually encouraged to engage in such trade through economic incentives.

متن کاملP2P layered video streaming over wireless ad hoc networks
In this paper, we consider multicast video clip streaming in an ad hoc network. Efficient delivery of video is accomplished by means of a Peer-to-Peer (P2P) overlay network. To exploit multipath transport the paper introduces layered video streaming without the need for base layer protection. In an urban environment with higher node densities and lower node speeds, the network performance is sh...
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 کاملThe Hocman Prototype - Fast Motor Bikers and Ad Hoc Networking
We introduce Hocman, a mobile HTTP peer-to-peer application, which supports social interaction among motorcyclists. The system enables sharing of multimedia content, such as HTML documents, audio clips and images over ad-hoc networks. The design derives from requirements found in an ethnographic fieldwork on motorcyclists. Our understanding of speed, the vast setting and collaborative activitie...
