Abstract

P2P is a promising technology to construct the underlying supporting layer of a Grid. It is known that contribution from all the peers is vital for the sustainability of a P2P community, but peers are often selfish and unwilling to contribute. In this paper we describe how to construct a fair file-exchanging P2P community. We name this community a P2P file market. Our scheme forces peers to contribute by a micropayment-based incentive mechanism.
