We consider streaming video content over an overlay network of peer nodes. Each of the nodes employs a mesh-pull mechanism to organize the download of data units from its neighbou...
Overlay routing has been proposed to enhance the reliability and performance of IP networks, since it can bypass congestion and transient outages by forwarding traffic through one ...
In traditional overlay multicast network, all peers are treated as equal regardless of their importance and contribution to the network. In this paper, we consider that each user ...
Abstract--This paper addresses reliability of data dissemination applications when there are severe disruptions to the underlying physical infrastructure. Such massive simultaneous...
The instability of the tree-like multicast overlay caused by nodes' abrupt departures is considered as one of the major problems for peer-to-peer (P2P) multicast systems. In ...
