“…institutional scenario where the BitTorrent proxy is located on the same high-speed network of users' PCs [8], while in residential scenarios the performance is strongly influenced by the uplink rate allowed by the access network [9]. When the uplink rate is low, the legacy BitTorrent protocol performs poorly, and EE-BitTorrent outperforms it in terms of average download time and energy consumption.…”

P2P systems and applications have achieved increasing popularity in the last years due to the characteristics of dynamicity and scalability of the peer-to-peer paradigm. Currently, P2P applications -especially file sharing and file distribution applications -generate a remarkable portion of the overall Internet traffic. However, many common P2P protocols do not consider the energy problem. Frequently, hosts are requested to stay on and connected to the network for long times. Therefore, they are very energy-consuming. In this chapter, we present a general taxonomy to classify possible approaches to the energy problem in P2P systems and applications. Then, we survey the main solutions available in the literature, focusing on two relevant classes of P2P protocols, namely file sharing/distribution protocols (e.g., BitTorrent and Gnutella) and epidemic P2P protocols.

“…The opposite occurs when the uplink rate is good. Motivated by these results, the authors of [9] have proposed an adaptive algorithm that dynamically selects the most efficient BitTorrent option (i.e., legacy or proxy-based), depending on the current operating conditions.…”

“…In a VoD system, peers are able to pause the video or even perform some random seeks to an arbitrary point of playback in the video [4]. There are some P2P systems for content delivery such as BitTorrent [5], PPLive [6], UUSee [7], and YouTube [8]. Because of increasing video quality, peers need to have upload bandwidth capacity to satisfy the demand alone [3].…”

Peer-to-peer video on demand (P2P-VoD) is a solution to provide video service to a large number of users on the Internet. Due to the upload bandwidth bottleneck of VoD servers, the streaming capacity in the P2P-VoD system is limited. This paper proposes a new mechanism to improve the video streaming in P2P networks by using the idle peers upload bandwidth and storage, which are called helpers. The proposed method uses an XOR mechanism in the VoD server to encode chunks and reduce bandwidth use. The helpers receive encoded chunks from the VoD server and save them in their storage spaces and cooperate in sharing these chunks with the other peers. Simulation results using OMNET++ are provided to show the efficiency of the proposed mechanism in terms of the required upload capacity requirement of the server and deploying the storage and bandwidth of helpers. The results of simulation show that the upload bandwidth usage of the server has been reduced. On the other hand, the proposed method increases the memory usage of helpers.

When using any of the technologies described up until now, the mobile users receive a live video streaming but do not broadcast anything. In this paper, we propose a new method with which mobile user is both capable of sending and receiving social video. It is called MobileCast. MobileCast allows users to broadcast their own video in real-time, seeing live video and broadcast this video for other mobiles at the same time based on peer-to-peer network. With MobileCast, the idea is to use some of the idle sending capacity at the end mobile users. When mobile user captures and sends video in real-time, the device becomes a broadcaster then it can send this video for other mobile devices which again would forward the stream to other mobiles, and so on.
