Peer-to-peer (P2P) traffic optimization techniques that aim at improving locality in the peer selection process have attracted great interest in the research community and have been the subject of much discussion. Some of this discussion has produced controversial myths, some rooted in reality while others remain unfounded. This document evaluates the most prominent myths attributed to P2P optimization techniques by referencing the most relevant study or studies that have addressed facts pertaining to the myth. Using these studies, the authors hope to either confirm or refute each specific myth.

“…2. Data observed in Comcast's P4P trial [RFC5632] show an increase in download rates between 13% and 85%. Interestingly, the data collected in the experiment also indicate that fine-grained localization is less effective in improving download performance compared to lower levels of localization.…”

Many Internet applications are used to access resources such as pieces of information or server processes that are available in several equivalent replicas on different hosts. This includes, but is not limited to, peer-to-peer file sharing applications. The goal of Application-Layer Traffic Optimization (ALTO) is to provide guidance to applications that have to select one or several hosts from a set of candidates capable of providing a desired resource. This memo discusses deployment-related issues of ALTO. It addresses different use cases of ALTO such as peer-to-peer file sharing and Content Delivery Networks (CDNs) and presents corresponding examples. The document also includes recommendations for network administrators and application designers planning to deploy ALTO, such as recommendations on how to generate ALTO map information.

“…Here, as P2P distribution is inherently based on the temporal caching of data to the peers participating in the distribution swarm, the smart use of caching mechanisms so as to deliver the content to the peers has been the answer. Solutions proposed here include even the participation of providers of network infrastructure in the peer architecture [Proactive Participation of Providers in P2P (P4P)] .…”

Information‐centric networking (ICN) is an emerging networking paradigm, which is considered as a possible solution for the next generation Internet. Several research projects have been funded by the state and the industry towards the specification and implementation of ICN solutions, whereas Internet Research Task Force has established a research group for this reason, the Information‐Centric Networking Research Group. However, the use of ICN in action will be decided on the basis of its performance in several disciplines that, eventually, concern the users expectations from their applications over the future Internet. Currently, statistics suggest that, in the near future, the Internet bandwidth will be mainly consumed by multimedia and peer‐to‐peer applications. Furthermore, social networking applications become more and more popular both to end‐users and businesses. This special issue includes papers illustrating how information‐centric networks can effectively address practical issues rising in ICN deployments considering multimedia applications and social networking technologies.
