Modeling and Analysis of P2P Content Distribution Systems

Peer-to-peer (P2P) is an important content distribution approach that relies on users to provide service in addition to receiving service. This book brings together important results in P2P algorithms and performance analysis applicable to P2P content distribution. In this book, the authors introduce core models and significant analysis for P2P systems. Supplying valuable insights into good design and effective algorithms, the book uses simple examples to help readers understand the mathematical details.
