X Abstract

The success of swarming content delivery has motivated a new approach to live peer-to-peer (P2P) streaming that we call mesh-based streaming. In this approach, participating peers form a random mesh and incorporate swarming content delivery to stream live content. Despite the growing popularity of this approach, neither the design tradeoffs nor the basic performance bottlenecks in mesh-based P2P streaming are well understood. This paper presents PRIME, the first mesh-based P2P streaming for live content that effectively incorporates swarming content delivery. We identify two performance bottlenecks in a mesh-based P2P streaming, namely bandwidth bottleneck and content bottleneck. We derive proper peer connectivity to minimize bandwidth bottleneck as well as an efficient pattern of delivery for live content over a random mesh to minimize content bottleneck. We show that the pattern of delivery can be divided into diffusion and swarming phases and then identify proper packet scheduling algorithm at individual peers. Using ns simulations, we examine key characteristics, design tradeoffs and the relationship between main system parameters.

CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
