Abstract

As the Internet evolved, peer-to-peer networks becameone of the major enabling technologies. Alternativesolutions for several issues emerged with the use o thistechnology. Such is the case for the dissemination of largefiles to several receivers. The traditional client-serverapproach can not keep up with the rapidly increasingrequests of the users. P2P file sharing networks came asan unconventional way of relieving the server frombecoming the congestion point. The purpose of this paperis to show and analyze simulation results of an itinerarybased algorithm for the dissemination of a highlyanticipated file. Emphasis is given on several parametersof the network and how they can affect its performance.
