Abstract:
The Peer-to-Peer Streaming Peer Protocol (PPSPP) is a transport
protocol for disseminating the same content to a group of interested
parties in a streaming fashion. PPSPP supports streaming of both
pre-recorded (on-demand) and live audio/video content. It is based
on the peer-to-peer paradigm, where clients consuming the content are
put on equal footing with the servers initially providing the
content, to create a system where everyone can potentially provide
upload bandwidth. It has been designed to provide short time-till-
playback for the end user, and to prevent disruption of the streams
by malicious peers. PPSPP has also been designed to be flexible and
extensible. It can use different mechanisms to optimize peer
uploading, prevent freeriding, and work with different peer discovery
schemes (centralized trackers or Distributed Hash Tables). It
supports multiple methods for content integrity protection and chunk
addressing. Designed as a generic protocol that can run on top of
various transport protocols, it currently runs on top of UDP using
LEDBAT for congestion control.
