摘要:
Embodiments of the disclosure set forth methods for sharing data in a wireless network. Some example methods include storing in a database a content related information associated with a first mobile device, receiving a request for the content related information from a second mobile device, searching the database for the content related information, and transmitting a search result to the second mobile device to enable the transfer of content between the first mobile device and the second mobile device.
摘要:
A method and system for live streaming in a peer-to-peer network are described including determining peer entitled and excess degree, identifying and contacting a potential parent peer and executing a contribution aware connection policy.
摘要:
A peer-to-peer network in which a respective uploaders is paid for uploading content in accordance with a request for the content by a respective downloader. More specifically, the respective uploader is paid an amount determined in accordance with quality of service factors committed to in advance of the uploading by the respective uploader, quality of service factors actually provided to the respective downloader by the respective uploader or a quality of service requested by the respective downloader. A central system reconciles payment from the respective uploader, to a respective downloader and to a content rights holder.
摘要:
A method is described including requesting content from a directory service, receiving a list of peers in a peer-to-peer network having the requested content, selecting a peer from the received list of peers, establishing communications with the selected peer, receiving a list of chunks of content and ads available from the selected peer, requesting a chunk of content and ads available from said selected peer and receiving the chunk of content and randomly selected ads from the selected peer. Also described is a method including receiving a request for content, generating a list of chunks of content available for the requested content, generating a list of ads associated with the requested content, transmitting the list of available chunks of content responsive to the request, receiving a request for a selected chunk of content and transmitting the selected chunk of content and ads associated with the selected chunk of content.
摘要:
Methods and systems for providing items of content over a peer-to-peer system are described. Items of content are requested from a central server by a downloading peer, and the central server determines uploading peers from whom the downloading peer may request parts of the content item.
摘要:
An example approach is provided for distributing content among user devices while in an offline mode. In the approach, a distributing/requesting module causes determination of one or more requests from at least one requesting device for one or more content items associated with at least one distributing device, wherein the one or more requests are determined using local connectivity between the at least one requesting device and the at least one distributing device. Further, distributing/requesting module causes an exchange, a storage, or a combination thereof of transactional information associated with the one or more requests, a delivery of the one or more content items, or a combination thereof of in an offline mode. Furthermore, the distributing/requesting module causes a transmission of the transactional information to at least one server when in an online mode.

Providing for fair resource sharing among wireless nodes in a wireless communication environment is described herein. By way of example, fairness can comprise establishing a set of resource sharing credits for wireless nodes. By expending credits, a node can borrow a resource of another node, to enable or enhance operation of the borrowing node. Credits for the borrowing node are decreased based on consumption of a shared resource, or credits for the lending node are increased based on such consumption, or both. Once an amount of credits expires, a node can be restricted from borrowing further resources until enough resources are lent to build up a suitable amount of credits. Accordingly, fairness can comprise correlating shared resource consumption with shared resource provisioning, to encourage participation in cooperative wireless communications.
摘要:
A system and method for content distribution are provided. A content provider generates a network topology having one or more subnetworks made up of content sources. The content provider segments content, such as applications, into segments for distribution. The content provider then distributes the content such that for each identified subnetwork, each content segment is distributed to a content source. Subsequent, client computing device requests for content can be serviced by selecting a content source in a particular subnetwork selected for delivering the requested content to the client computing device to minimize traffic flow of the requested content through the nodes of the distribution network.
摘要:
A distribution system including, for connection over a network a plurality of client upload devices, each client upload device storing one or more chunks of a content file, a client download device configured to download from the client upload devices chunks of the content file stored by the respective client upload devices and an incentive device configured to generate token data packets exchangeable for chunks of the content file. The client download device is configured to acquire a plurality of token data packets from the incentive device and to communicate with individual respective client upload devices and thereby download, in exchange for respective token data packets, stored chunks of the content file. Each client upload device is configured to communicate with the client download device and, thereby, upload to the client download device stored chunks of the content file in exchange for token data packets acquired by the client download device from the incentive device and is configured to transmit to the incentive device token data packets received from the client download device.
摘要:
A method dedicated to the management of data transmission in peer to peer mode between peers that can connect to a communication network, each transmission being carried out by a peer, following the reception of a request from another peer, according to a selected reciprocity mechanism. When a peer wants to receive from another peer N blocks of data according to a first priority level Xk selected in a set of at least two different priority levels, in assigning to this peer an exchange value equivalent to a number M of blocks of data to be transmitted to at least one other peer according to a second priority level Xk′ selected in this set, M being equal to N*mkk′, where mkk′ is a predetermined value function of the first Xk and second Xk′ selected priority levels.
