A scheme of resource allocation and stability for peer–to–peer file–sharing networks

Abstract: Peer-to-peer (P2P) networks offer a cost-effective and easily deployable framework for sharing content. However, P2P file-sharing applications face a fundamental problem of unfairness. Pricing is regarded as an effective way to provide incentives to peers to cooperate. In this paper we propose a pricing scheme to achieve reasonable resource allocation in P2P file-sharing networks, and give an interpretation for the utility maximization problem and its sub-problems from an economic point of view. We also deduce… Show more

“…There is flourishing literature that relates theory to the pooling system of N servers and the inventory pooling system (Benjaafar, 1995;Buzacott, 1996;Mandelbaum and Reiman, 1998;Nagarajan and Sosic, 2008). Some of these works have focused on application of cooperation in production lines, call centers and networks (Hopp et al, 2004;Aksin et al, 2008;Mariano and Correia, 2015;Li et al, 2016). Gonzalez and Herrero (2004) deal with a cost allocation problem arising from sharing a medical service in the presence of queues and use a standard queuing theory model in the context of several medical procedures, a certain demand for treatment and a maximum average waiting-time guaranteed by the government.…”

“…However, optimization algorithms like gradient algorithm and quasi-Newton method can achieve good convergence effect in a short time, fewer researchers have come up with new precise algorithms. Li et al [45] proposed a pricing scheme to realize reasonable resource allocation in a P2P file-sharing network, and verified its stability with Lyapunov theory. Zhan et al [46] applied a policy gradient DRL-based approach to solving resource scheduling problems regarded as the Markov decision process.…”

“…Recently, Li and Sun (2016) as well as Li et al (2016a) applied the first-order Lagrangian idea and low-pass filtering method, and proposed a novel price-based bandwidth allocation mechanism. Thus a service customer receives its bandwidth allocation according to its offered price, which realizes the goal of fair resource allocation.…”
