Abstract

The traditional client/server model with its single point of failure and centralized administration has turned out to be a poor fit for file downloads for some applications; the same may apply to streaming media services in the near future. We propose an architecture for streaming media in a peer-to-peer network scenario that is robust and efficient, and expected to be advantageous even if links are asymmetric.
