The widespread use of broadband networks and theevolution of Peer-to-Peer systems changed dramaticallythe way Internet is used today. P2P file sharing networksare one of the most popular ways of sharing anddistributing new content. But along with the benefits ofthese networks, certain patterns became apparent. Itcould take a long period of time for new, highlyanticipated files to become available for download, due tohigh demand. Therefore, the use of such networks as amean of file dissemination is not always successful,especially when the files are of considerable size. In thispaper Peercast is presented, a P2P dissemination system,along with simulation results. Our focus in this paper ison how this and other P2P file sharing networks can beconfigured to optimize the dissemination process of highlyanticipated files.
