Coalitions Improve Performance in Data Swarming Systems

Abstract: We present an argument in favor of forming coalitions of peers in a data swarming system consisting of peers with heterogeneous upload capacities. In this paper, a coalition refers to a set of peers that explicitly cooperate with other peers inside the coalition via choking, piece selection, and capacity allocation strategies. Furthermore, each peer in a coalition exchanges data with peers outside its coalition via distinct choking, piece selection, and capacity allocation strategies. We first propose a simple… Show more

“…In case of disjoint swarms, they determined that if the maximum of the arrival rates of all swarms are less than the upload rate of seed, then the overall system is stable and if it exceeds the upload rate of seed then the overall system is unstable. Zhang et al [21] propose forming coalitions between peers that paves the way for different peer and piece selection policies that may surpass the performance of BitTorrent's peer and piece selection policies.…”
