Abstract:
The BitTorrent (BT) file sharing protocol is very popular due to its
scalability property and the built-in incentive mechanism to reduce
free-riding. However, in designing such P2P file sharing protocols,
there is a fundamental ``tussle'' between keeping peers,
specially the more resourceful ones, in the system for as long as
possible to help the system achieve better performance and allowing
peers finish their download as quickly as possible. The current BT
protocol represents only ``one'' possible implementation in
this whole design spectrum. In this work, we characterize the
``complete'' design space of BT-like protocols.
