An Experimental Study on Peer Selection in a P2P Network over PlanetLab
ICPPW '07: Proceedings of the 2007 International Conference on Parallel Processing Workshops

Peer selection is an important aspect in many P2P applications requiring efficient assignment and execution of jobs to peer nodes and search and file transfer, among others. Due to increasing interest of using P2P systems for distributed computing, peer ...
Using PlanetLab for network research: myths, realities, and best practices

PlanetLab is a continuously-evolving global network research testbed that is simultaneously used by hundreds of researchers for diverse tasks, ranging from short-term self-contained experiments among PlanetLab nodes to continuously-running Web-...
A study of an hybrid CDN-P2P system over the PlanetLab network

In this work we propose an hybrid CDN-P2P architecture for video contents delivery based on the NextShare platform. Experiments were conducted over the PlanetLab network using a number of peers which encompass real network behaviors. Results show that ...
