Modelling of P2P-Based Video Sharing Performance for Content-Oriented Community-Based VoD Systems in Wireless Mobile Networks

Abstract EN

The video sharing performance is a key factor for scalability and quality of service of P2P VoD systems in wireless mobile networks.

There are some impact factors for the video sharing performance, such as available upload bandwidth, resource distribution in overlay networks, and mobility of mobile nodes.

In this paper, we firstly model user behaviors: joining, playback, and departure for the content-oriented community-based VoD systems in wireless mobile networks and construct a resource assignment model by the analysis of transition of node state: suspend, wait, and playback.

We analyze the influence of the above three factors: upload bandwidth, startup delay, and resource distribution for the sharing performance and QoS of systems.

We further propose the improved resource sharing strategies from the perspectives of community architecture, resource distribution, and data transmission for the systems.

Extensive tests show how the improved strategies achieve much better performance results in comparison with original strategies.
