At Industrial Laboratories

· Research Intern                                                                                        March’06-July’06

Thomson Paris Research Lab                                                                   Paris, France

Supervisor: Dr. Christophe Diot

Mentor: Dr. Christoph Neumann

Push-to-Peer Video on Demand system: We proposed Push-to-Peer architecture, a peer-to-peer approach to cooperatively stream video. The main departure from previous work is that content is proactively pushed to peers, and persistently stored before the actual peer-to-peer transfers. The initial content placement increases content availability and improves use of peer uplink bandwidth. Our specific contributions were: (i) content placement and associated pull policies that allow optimal use of uplink bandwidth and perfect balancing of download rates among competing downloads; (ii) performance analysis of such policies in the case of controlled environments, e.g. DSL networks under ISP control; (iii) distributed load balancing strategies for initial selection of serving peers; (iv) distributed strategies to cope with dynamic uplink bandwidth.
