In peer-to-peer (P2P) overlay networks, multimedia contents are in nature distributed to peers by downloading and caching. Here, a peer which transmits a multimedia content and a peer which receives the multimedia content are referred to as source and receiver peers, respectively. A peer is realized in a process of a computer and there are mobile and fixed types of computers. A peer on a mobile computer moves in the network. Furthermore, a peer maybe realized as a mobile agent. Thus, not only receiver peers but also source peers might move in the network. In this paper, we would like to discuss how source peers deliver multimedia contents to receiver peers in a streaming model so that enough quality of service (QoS) required is supported in change of QoS of network and peer, possibly according to the movements of the peers. In this paper, we discuss a multi-source streaming (MSS) protocol where a receiver peer can receive packets of a multimedia content from multiple source peers which can support enough QoS. If a current source peer is expected to support lower QoS than required, another source peer takes over the source peer and starts sending packets of the multimedia content. The receiver peer is required to receive packets of the multimedia content with enough QoS, e.g. no packet loss even if the source peer is being switched with a new source peer. We discuss how to switch source peers so as to support enough QoS to the moving receiver peer. We evaluate the MSS protocol in terms of the fault ratio, i.e. how frequently the receiver peer fails to receive packets with enough QoS and show the MSS protocol can reduce the fault ratio.
