Abstract

Recently, there has been a growing interest in academic and commercial environments for Video-on-Demand (VoD) using Peer-to-Peer (P2P) technology. Unlike centralized solutions for VoD services, P2P technology lets the clients distribute video content among themselves. In this paper,we propose an analytical model for P2PVoD and we compare that model to a realistic P2PVoD simulator. With our model, parameters that affect the system performance can be observed, and the system stability can be investigated.Our model leads to design rules for achieving a good and stable system performance. This work is, to our knowledge,the first analytical work to model mesh-based P2PVoD.
