Abstract

This study identifies optimal transmission mechanisms for a streaming video service in a peer-to-peer network structure as a function of the number of active peers, a common service value, a common discount factor, and costs accumulated by the server and peers under two different peer participation settings: no peer churn and with peer churn. We calculate a uniform service price for every possible peer-to-peer distribution tree and identify the optimal transmission mechanism under different cost structures.
