Abstract

We do a network measurement towards PPLive VOD streaming system and find that server bandwidth saving rate (BSR) of a video is related to videos’ popularity. Specifically, the video with low popularity suffers low BSR. In response to this phenomenon, we develop a heuristic replica replacement algorithm for distributed storage strategy in P2P VOD streaming system. We use daily weighted average upload flow of replicas in peers’ as the criteria for deleting redundant replicas. We use dynamic probation of replicas to check the importance of replicas. Also, we design popularity coefficient and rate coefficient to regulate the replica distribution of unpopular videos and high coding rate videos in our distributed storage strategy, which improves the BSR of the P2P VOD streaming system.
