“…Furthermore, chunk scheduling algorithms in existing SVC based P2P streaming systems can be divided into two categories, fixed and unfixed. In fixed chunk scheduling algorithm, the downloading sequence of chunks is fixed, such as layer-by-layer [12], sequential [7] or tradeoff [11]. They are simple to implement, but their performance is not satisfied.…”

The PLCS (Playback Length Changeable Segmentation) algorithm was proposed to improve the success delivery rate of chunks in some important layers including the base layer for SVC based P2P streaming systems. In this paper, we make further research and propose a corresponding chunk scheduling algorithm named PLCCS (Playback Length Changeable Chunk Scheduling). In PLCCS, there are two scheduling windows on clients, including General Window and Emergent Window. Different scheduling strategies are adopted in the two windows to ensure the efficiency of data distribution as well as the playback fluency. Moreover, an adaptive strategy is used in General Window to accommodate the change of the network state. We evaluate the performance of PLCCS through simulations. The results show that compared with two representative EPLS based chunk scheduling algorithms, PLCCS can achieve better video quality on clients by at least 40%, and it decreases the useless packet ratio on clients by at least 15 times. Moreover, the adaptive strategy used in PLCCS makes it suitable to be applied in SVC based P2P streaming systems in heterogeneous network environments.

“…In SVC-based P2P streaming systems, the chunk scheduling algorithms are usually classified into two categories in terms of the dynamics of scheduling order. One is the chunk scheduling with constant downloading order, such as layer-importance based chunk order [9] and pre-organized sequential chunk order [20]. They are simple to implement, but their performances are not well satisfied.…”

“…Owing to the demand of synchronization among different layers, Equal Playback Length Segmentation (EPLS) algorithm is usually adopted in the SVC-based P2P streaming. EPLS splits each layer into chunks with equal playback length, so that the data of different layers which should be decoded at the same time slot can be encapsulated into chunks with the same sequence identifiers, and the synchronization among layers will be simplified [8][9][10]18]. However, EPLS does not take the unequal importance levels of layers in SVC into consideration, and it consequently decreases success delivery rates of chunks in some important layers.…”

“…For scalable video streaming over P2P networks, there are many pioneer works [8][9][10][11] to exploit the benefit of integrating the layer-based stream with P2P networks. As a matter of fact, P2P streaming has also been proved to be an efficient way for distributing the naturally captured stereoscopic 3D video [12,13] or multi-view video [14].…”

“…Recently, peer-to-peer scalable video streaming is a promising technique to alleviate the problem of increased bitrate requirement at the sender side and has attracted significant attention from researchers [1][2][3][4][5][6]. Baccichet et al [7] develop a mathematical framework to quantify the advantage of using scalable codec for tree-based overlays, particularly during network congestions.…”

The growing interest in multimedia applications can cause bandwidth scarcity problem in server-client based architectures, making P2P a promising alternative. Bit-Torrent is one of the most popular P2P solutions and there have already been propositions to tune it for video streaming. In this study, a torrent based P2P video streaming solution is used. scalable video coding (SVC) streaming is realised in an adaptive video streaming framework. Moreover, we evaluate two most well renowned SVC codecs namely MPEG SVC and Wavelet based SVC and compare their rate-distortion performances both before and after video streaming. Extensive simulations have been performed to investigate the effect of increasing number of layers in SVC.
