Swarming Overlay Construction Strategies

Abstract: Swarming peer-to-peer systems play an increasingly instrumental role in Internet content distribution. It is therefore important to better understand how these systems behave in practice. Recent research efforts have looked at various protocol parameters and have measured how they affect system performance and robustness. However, the importance of the strategy based on which peers establish connections has been largely overlooked.This work utilizes extensive simulations to examine the default overlay construc… Show more

“…This is because a slow seed may not be fast enough in disseminating file blocks into the system, and situations may arise where a user may not have blocks that his/her neighbors are interested in. (A similar situation in a flash crowd scenario may arise if one keeps the seed upload link capacity fixed but starts increasing the number of leechers [Al-Hamra et al 2009]). To investigate this scenario, in Figures 5(ii) and 5(iii), we repeat the same experiment as in Figure 5(i) but with lower upload link capacities for the seed, 250Kbps and 100Kbps respectively.…”

“…It is motivated by the intuition that choosing random neighbors tends to generate a random graph [3], whose main property is the robustness to handle highly transient populations [10]. However, previous work shows that the strategy clusters peers according to their arrival time in the system, which unfortunately decreases the overall network robustness [4], [5]. In an extreme scenario, the topology could even be partitioned.…”

“…The work on preemption (or preemptive) strategy [4] was one of the first attempts to model connections among peers. Through simulations, the authors captured and compared the evolution of the overlay topology, considering both preemptive and tracker (inactive) strategies for neighborhood management.…”
