Leveraging Social Networks for Increased BitTorrent Robustness

Karl Aberer, Wojciech Galuba, Zoran Despotovic

In peer-to-peer content delivery systems, such as BitTorrent, there may exist nodes that are non-cooperative and do not contribute their upload bandwidth to the system while still downloading content from others. The current widely used countermeasures aga ...

Designing peer-to-peer overlays

Sarunas Girdzijauskas

The Small-World phenomenon, well known under the phrase "six degrees of separation", has been for a long time under the spotlight of investigation. The fact that our social network is closely-knitted and that any two people are linked by a short chain of a ...

Game Theory Video Streaming

Mahdad Hosseini Kamal

We consider the problem of peer selection for multimedia trans- mission over a peer-to-peer (P2P) network to find a strategy model for peer selection for each lost packet. Our problem consists of two parts one related to the P2P network that is a peer sele ...

Distributed rate allocation for multi-flow video delivery

We consider rate-distortion (RD) optimized multi-flow video delivery in unstructured overlay networks. We show that this problem can be studied as a distributed rate allocation. To solve the problem over the participating peers in the overlay, we apply cla ...

Fuzzynet: Zero-maintenance Ringless Overlay

Karl Aberer, Anwitaman Datta, Wojciech Galuba, Sarunas Girdzijauskas

Many structured overlay networks rely on a ring invariant as a core network connectivity element. The responsibility ranges of the participating peers and navigability principles (greedy routing) heavily depend on the ring structure. For correctness guaran ...

Collaborative video streaming with Raptor network coding

Pascal Frossard, Nikolaos Thomos

We investigate the problem of collaborative video streaming with Raptor network coding over overlay networks. We exploit path and source diversity, as well as basic processing capabilities of network nodes to increase the overall throughput and improve the ...

Bottleneck Discovery and Overlay Management in Network Coded Peer-to-Peer Systems

Christina Fragouli, Suhas Diggavi, Mahdi Jafari Siavoshani

The performance of peer-to-peer (P2P) networks depends critically on the good connectivity of the overlay topology. In this paper we study P2P networks for content distribution (such as Avalanche) that use randomized network coding techniques. The basic id ...

Simplifying complex networks

David Gfeller

The framework of complex networks has been shown to describe adequately a wide class of complex systems made up of a large number of interacting units. In this framework, a node is associated to each unit and two nodes are connected by an edge if the two u ...

Toward a Multi-Agent Architecture for Market Oriented Planning in Electricity Supply Industry

Edgard Gnansounou, Jun Dong, Abdelaziz Lahlou

The liberalization of the electricity supply industry has shifted the analyses and modelling activities from planning to operation. However, project studies and investment appraisal still require medium and long-term anticipation of the electricity market ...
