A BitTorrent Proxy
BitTorrent is a peer-to-peer protocol useful for distributing large files over the Internet. Many organizations use BitTorrent to distribute their software in order to reduce client download time and reduce the load on their servers. While there is a lot of legitimate content available via …

FlowerPot : an anonymous BitTorrent client
… analyzes FlowerPot, an anonymous client for the BitTorrent file-sharing system. FlowerPot is peer-to-peer, providing scalability and making it difficult to attack with techniques like denial-of-service. It provides anonymity to users by routing traffic through several peers before actually …

Analysis of bandwidth attacks in a bittorrent swarm
… developed a new Peer-to-Peer protocol called BitTorrent. The main principle behind BitTorrent is an incentive mechanism, called a choking algorithm, which rewards peers that share. Currently, BitTorrent is one of the most widely used protocols on the Internet. Therefore, it is important to …

Reducing Seed Load in the BitTorrent File Sharing System
<p>BitTorrent is an attractive peer-to-peer technology that attempts to reduce load on file sharers by allowing downloaders to share content between themselves. BitTorrent's current focus is to provide users with a fast download, which requires the file sharer to serve a disproportionate amount of …

Raptorqp2P: Maximize The Performance Of P2P File Distribution With Raptorq Coding
BitTorrent is the most popular Peer-to-Peer (P2P) file sharing system widely used for distributing large files over the Internet. It has attracted extensive attentions from both network operators and researchers for investigating its deployment and performance. For example, recent studies have …

Evolutionary methods for self-organizing cooperation in peer-to-peer networks
… We put our efforts in studying and improving the BitTorrent protocol. BitTorrent was chosen not only for its popularity but because it has many points in common with SLAC and SLACER algorithms, ranging from the game theoretical inspiration (tit-for-tat-like mechanism) to the swarms topology. We …

Theorising the cultural impacts of film distribution in the cinema and beyond
… access points, from iTunes downloads, legal BitTorrent releases, host-your-own community screenings and free YouTube streams. New forms of distribution beyond the dominant commercial players are not just restructuring the film industry, they are presenting theoretical challenges to film …

Measuring Ethereum's peer-to-peer network
… those of other well-studied P2P networks, namely BitTorrent and Gnutella. We develop novel techniques to measure the Ethereum P2P network and gain visibility into this previously opaque network.

Implementation Of A Raptorq-Based Protocol For Peer To Peer Network
… found to be significantly improved comparing to BitTorrent. We developed a Ruby interface to the Qualcomm proprietary RaptorQ software development kit library. Then we achieved the two levels of RaptorQ encoding and decoding with the Ruby interface. Our implementation uses 5 threads to implement …

Systematic Cooperation in P2P Grids
… transfer architecture. It is based both on the BitTorrent P2P file sharing protocol and on the removal of the temporal cost of downloading redundant copies of input data files. * Thirdly, besides a middleware implementation of LBG, we also provide an implementation of a discrete-event simulator. …

Trust Management Systems: Reference Architecture and Personalization
… of resources and services, such as Amazon.com, BitTorrent, WebEx and Skype. In such marketplaces, user entities, or users for short; namely, consumers, providers and brokers, are largely autonomous with vastly diverse requirements, capabilities and trust profiles. Users' requirements may include …

Automated Cloud Datastore and Infrastructure Management Under SLA
… like Netflix, Youtube, Facebook, Amazon, BitTorrent, etc., use quorum-replicated datastores, like Cassandra, MongoDB, Hbase, etc., to process huge volumes of data on a cluster of commodity machines. Our research explores novel techniques to adapt the client-centric performance (i.e., …

Advancing Multimedia: Application Sharing, Latency Measurements and User-Created Services
… in available bandwidth, presence of HTTP and BitTorrent traffic and wireless packet losses. To perform these measurements more effectively, I have also developed vDelay, a novel tool for measuring the capture-to-display latency (CDL) and frame rate of real-time video conferencing sessions. …

ISP-Aided Neighbour Selection in Peer-to-Peer Systems
… eine wachsende Anzahl von Applikationen, z.B. Bittorrent, eDonkey, Joost, Skype, GoogleTalk und P2P-TV nutzen die P2P-Methodik. P2P-Systeme errichten Overlays auf der Applikationsschicht, unabhängig von Internet-Routing und ISP-Topologien. Dies führt zu zusätzlichen Verkehr aufgrund der …
