Abstract
The enormous popularity of Video on Demand (VoD) has attracted substantial research attention into the effective use of peer-to-peer (P2P) architectures to provide solutions at large-scale. In particular, the high efficiency of BitTorrent has inspired many P2P protocols for VoD. However, these protocols use different approaches to adapt the design of Bittorrent to VoD, and in most cases their performance has been evaluated separately and in limited scenarios. As a consequence, the research community still lacks a clear understanding of how these protocols compare against each other and how well each of them would work in real world conditions, where, for instance, peers have heterogeneous bandwidths, mayfreeride or may belocatedbehind NAT/firewall. In this paper, we propose a simulation based methodology which aims at putting forward a common base for comparing the performance of these different protocols under a wide range of conditions. We show that, despite
