Understanding churn in P2P systems

Sponsor: NSF

Abstract

Peer-to-peer (P2P) systems have recently evolved into complex, self-organizing entities that provide a scalable, efficient, and decentralized platform for many Internet applications. To support and continue expanding this important field, this project develops fundamental analytical and experimental understanding of P2P networks under user churn, which is a term describing dynamic behavior of P2P systems in which arrivals and departures are not synchronized. This work builds upon a synergy of analytical modeling of P2P dynamics and experimental sampling of churn in real networks.
