Course Description:
This course provides an in-depth examination of advanced topics in peer-to-peer (P2P) networking in which all the peers play symmetric roles as both clients and servers. The course has two parts. The first part covers traditional P2P-related topics such as P2P data sharing, P2P resource search, P2P storage, P2P multicast, P2P security, P2P reputation and incentive, P2P censorship-resistance, P2P resource trading, P2P knowledge sharing, P2P on mobile ad hoc networks, and so on. The second part covers P2P networked virtual environment (P2P NVE) related topics, such as P2P massively multiplayer online games (MMOGs), latency compensation, playability, cheats, user creation, community management and 3D scene streaming for online games, etc. After learning the course, the students can become familiar with basic concepts of P2P networking.

• (5/13) Homework: Write a report of one or two pages discussing one of the following questions. You should hand in the report by the noon on May 17. (Refer to BB system for the manner to hand in the report.)
  
• a. Give intuitive explanations about the reason why the topology matching algorihtm proposed in [1] can reduce the latency and extend the broadcasting scope. You can refer to Fig. 3 in [1]
• b. Can the cross-layer approach-based Gnutella protocol [2] use the broadcasting (or flooding) protocol, instead of AODV, DSR and the like, in MANETs? Show the reason to support your answer.
• c. Give intuitive explanations for the reason why MRWB [3] can improve unbiased sampling for unstructured peer-to-peer networks.
• (5/20) Reading and reporting: Read the paper [CS-2009-22.pdf] and write a one- or two-page report to show how Credence, BitTorrent, BitTyrant, or KARMA deals with the free-riding, white-washing, Sybil attack or user-rationality problems. For example, you may choose the combination of BitTorrent and free-riding problem and describe how BitTorrent utilizes the Tic-for-Tat (TFT) mechanism to deal with the free-riding problem. However, since it is well known that TFT can solve the free-riding problem, I would like you to choose another combination for the report. (P2PIncentive.ppt)
