기존의 네트워크 환경에서 서비스 제공자들은 사용자들이 사용하고 있는 네트워크의 느린 속도와 가상 IP 사용으로 인해 빠른 대역폭과 대형 저장 공간, 그리고 고정 IP를 가진 서버를 운영함으로써, 사용자들에게 일방적으로 서비스를 제공하는 방식으로 발전해왔다. 그러나 인터넷 사용자의 폭발적인 증가와 함께 네트워크의 속도가 향상되어 각 사용자들은 서버를 경유하지 않고 사용자간 직접적인 파일 송수신을 할 수 있게 되었다. 각 단체에서는 이러한 P2P 환경의 장점을 이용하여 여러 P2P 응용프로그램들을 개발하였지만, 네트워크 그룹에 참여하기 위하여 프로그램 내부에 서버의 IP가 지정되거나 사용자가 직접 IP를 입력해야 하기 때문에 서버가 더 이상의 서비스를 제공하지 않는다면 일반 클라이언트를 사용하는 사용자들은 서비스를 제공받지 못하는 문제점이 발생하게 되었다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 순수 P2P 환경에서 각 피어들은 인접한 피어로부터 다른 피어들의 IP를 얻어 목록으로 관리함으로써, 소켓으로 연결된 피어가 종료하여도 목록에 유지된 다른 피어에게 연결하여 네트워크 그룹에 지속적으로 연결 유지를 할 수 있는 기법을 제안하고자 한다. 이 제안기법은 죄초 실행시 기존의 방식과 같이 특정 피어의 IP를 지정해주지만, 이후의 동작과정에서는 어떠한 피어 IP도 지정하여 주지 않기 때문에 더욱 더 안정된 서비스를 제공받을 수 있다.

In this paper, we devise a cost function by considering the energy consumption rate and the remaining energy of a peer. Then, we propose a parent peer selection method that chooses the least cost peer in the system in a distributed manner. On the contrary to the conventional method that makes each peer select the least cost neighbor as a parent peer, the proposed method chooses a parent peer using the swarm intelligence formed among a set of peers. Therefore, the proposed method could extent distributedly the number of peers searched for parent peer selection. Thus, compared to the conventional method, the proposed method increases the probability of being a parent peer as the cost of a peer becomes smaller with less operational load.

In recent years, peer-to-peer network have a greate deal of attention for distributed computing or collaborative application, and work of ID-based public key systems have been focusing on the area of cryptography. In this paper, we propose ID-based group key management protocols for secure communication in autonomous peer group. Each member obtains his public/private key pair derived from his identification string from Private Key Generator. No central server participates in group key management protocol instead, all group members share the burden of group key management by the collaboration of themselves, so that our scheme avoids the single point of failure problem. In addition, our scheme considers the nature of dynamic peer group such as frequent joining and leaving of a member.

Recently, with the rapid increase in technology and users of smart devices, the smart watch market has grown, and its utility and usability are continuously expanding. The strengths of smartwatches are wearable portability, application immediacy, data diversity and real-time capability. Despite these strengths, smartwatches have limitations such as battery limitations, display and user interface size limitations, and memory limitations. In addition, there is a need to supplement developers and standard devices, operating system standard models, and killer application modules. In particular, monitoring and application of user's biometric information is becoming a major service for smart watches. The biometric information of such a smart watch generates a large amount of data in real time. In order to advance the biometric information service, stable peer-to-peer transmission of sensing data to a remote smartphone or local server storage must be performed. We propose a synchronization method to ensure wireless remote peer-to-peer transmission stability in a smart watch system. We design a wireless peer-to-peer transmission process based on this synchronization method, analyze asynchronous transmission process and proposed synchronous transmission process, and propose a transmission efficiency method according to an increase in transmission amount.

Recently, with the development of mobile devices and near field communication, mobile P2P networks have been actively studied to improve the limits of the existing centralized processing system. A peer has limited components such as batteries, memory and storage spaces in mobile P2P networks. The trust of a peer should be discriminated in order to share reliable contents in mobile P2P networks. In this paper, we propose a trust discrimination scheme considering limited resources in mobile P2P environments. The proposed scheme discriminates the trust of a peer by direct rating values using the rating information of the peer and indirect rating values by the other peers. The recent update time is included in the rating information. The proposed scheme reduces the redundant rating information by comparing the recent update times of the rating information. It is shown through performance evaluation that the proposed scheme reduces the number of messages and improves the accuracy of trust over the existing scheme.

In this paper, we propose a buffering scheme to improve the performance by adaptively adjusting the length of the buffering period according to the degree of data duplication among peers that belong to each specific playback period in P2P live streaming systems. To do so, we first assign all the peers into many groups depending on their playback time positions. We then determine the length of their buffering periods according to the number of peers belonging to each group. That is, we increase the length of the buffering periods when much buffered data are duplicated among peers within a group while we decrease it when few buffered data are duplicated. By simulation experiments, we show that our proposed buffering scheme can improve the performance significantly compared to the fixed length buffering scheme that have been employed in the existing mesh-based P2P systems.

The research on peer-to-peer streaming schemes has largely focused on tree-push and mesh-pull structures. However, the tree-push structure has a defect that the tree restructuring time is long, and the mesh-pull structure has long startup delay and lag time from source servers. In this paper, we propose a new peer-to-peer live streaming scheme based on a push-mesh structure that takes advantages of tree-push and mesh-pull structure simultaneously. This structure basically provides the mesh-pull mechanism for data transmission and utilizes peers with high network upload capacity. It also supports the push mechanism along with paths from a source server, super peers, and selected general peers. By NS-2 simulation experiments, we finally show that our proposed scheme can achieve shorter startup delay than the mesh-pull structure, similar lag time to tree-push structure and best playback continuity among the three schemes.

최근 인터넷 사용자들의 요구는 멀티미디어로 집중되고 있으며 그중 라이브 미디어 스트리밍 서비스에 대한 요구가 증가하고 있다. 라이브 서비스에서는 적절한 시간에 사용자에게 데이터가 도착하는 것이 중요하다. 따라서 라이브의 시간적절성을 충족시켜 줄 효율적이고 신속한 데이터 전달구조와 전송기법이 요구된다. 이에 본 논문에서는 트리와 메시 구조를 혼합한 하이브리드 방식으로 네트워크 자원을 효율적으로 사용하면서 빠른 데이터 전송으로 라이브의 시간적절성을 충족시킬 수 있는 데이터 분할 전송 방식의 P2P(Peer-to-Peer) 오버레이 구조를 제안한다. 제안하는 ToG(Tree of Groups)는 n개의 피어들이 메시로 그룹을 형성하고, 그렇게 형성된 그룹들이 트리를 이루는 구조이다. ToG에서 그룹 내의 각 피어들은 상위그룹의 피어 한 개와 부모-자식으로 연결되어 있어서 그룹 사이에 여러 개의 연결이 존재하게 된다. 따라서 그룹 내에서 어느 한 피어가 그룹을 빠져 나가더라도 상위그룹과의 여러 연결에 의해서 서비스 지속성을 보장 할 수 있다. ToG는 그룹단위로 트리가 형성되기 때문에 피어의 개수가 같을 때 피어단위로 트리를 형성하는 구조보다 트리의 깊이가 줄어든다. 그에 따라 말단에 있는 피어들에게까지 빠른 시간에 데이터가 전달 될 수 있다. ToG의 데이터 전달은 소스로부터 세그먼트가 일정한 값 n으로 나뉘어져 각 피어들에게 전달된다. 세그먼트 조각은 소스로부터 나뉘어져 전송 될 때 책임적으로 전달해야할 피어와 전달 순서가 정해져있고, 데이터 전송 스케줄링을 위한 버퍼 맵 교환은 필요하지 않다.

P2P network environments provide users with direct data transmission and sharing facilities and those environments can be classified into hybrid P2P network environments and pure P2P network environments according to the arbitration mechanism among the peers in the network. In hybrid P2P network environments, there exists a server that maintains index information for the data to be shared and network isolation does not occur because every peer always keeps connection to the server. In pure P2P network environments, however, each peer directly connects to another peer and gets services without server intervention, and so, network isolation can occur when the mediating peer fails to work. In this paper. we propose a scheme for each peer to keep connection to other peers continuously by maintaining IP addresses of its neighbor peers and connecting to the peers when the mediating peer fails to work. Although the P2P application that uses our proposed framework should obtain one or more IP addresses of the neighbor peers manually, after instantiation, the application can do its job while maintaining connection to the network continuously and automatically. To evaluate our proposed scheme, we measured and analyzed the time for a peer to reconnect to the network when the mediating peer fails and the network isolation occurs.

This paper presents a P2P (Peer-to-Peer) overlay multicast tree construction algorithm to support stable multimedia service over the Internet. While constructing a multicast tree, it takes into account not only the link delay, but also peer stability. Since peers actually show dynamic and unstable behavior over P2P-based network, it is essential to consider peer stability. Furthermore, the weighting factor between link delay and peer stability is adaptively controlled according to the characteristics of the multicast tree. Basically, Genetic algorithm is employed to obtain a near optimal solution with low computational complexity. Finally, simulation results are provided to show the performance of the proposed algorithm.
