Title:
Efficient video transmission in P2P networks
Slides: pdf
Abstract:
P2P networks were initially proposed for efficient transmission of files, avoiding bottlenecks at the servers. In these networks, all nodes act both as clients and servers, forming a cooperative system to better use the available resources and support a high number of downloads that a conventional client/server architecture cannot. In view of the high demand of video services in the internet, P2P networks can be used to efficiently distribute streaming services for entertainment and social media traffic. However, the original P2P network has to be modified in order to allow early video reproduction to achieve this goal. In this talk, I aim at proposing the appropriate modifications to allow efficient video distribution in current and future applications through the mathematical modelling of P2P networks.
