ISP-Driven Delay Insertion for P2P Traffic Localization

概要

We introduce a new kind of P2P traffic localization technique, called <I>Netpherd</I>, benefiting from the network virtualization technique for its successful deployment. Netpherd exploits one feature of P2P applications, a peer selection adaptation (i.e., preferring peers who are likely to provide better performance) for the traffic localization. Netpherd tries to enable local peers (i.e., peers in target network domain) to communicate with each other by affecting the peer selection adaptation. To affect the peer selection adaptation, Netpherd adds artificial delay to inter-domain traffic going to local peers. Our experiment conducted over Internet testbed verifies that Netpherd achieves the traffic localization and also improves the content download performance with the network delay insertion. In addition, we show that how the network virtualization technique can be utilized for efficient and graceful implementation of Netpherd.
