Abstract

Peer-to-peer (P2P) networking technique represents a vast potential to overcome many constraints in the conventional content distribution networks, especially for the real-time applications such as P2P streaming. In this chapter, a P2P streaming system is examined, and the proposed system combines multiple-description source coding technique and a scalable streaming infrastructure. The proposed system aims to gradually offload congested traffic from a centralized bottleneck to the under-utilized P2P networks and hence, provides seamless transitions from client/server streaming to centralized P2P streaming and to decentralized P2P streaming. The performance of the proposed framework is evaluated in terms of video frame loss rate, which reflects the probability of freeze video frames.
