This paper presents a novel cooperative recording scheme in networked PVRs based on P2P networks to increase storage efficiency compared with when PVRs operate independently of each other, while maintaining program availability to a similar degree. We employ an erasure coding technique to guarantee data availability of recorded programs in P2P networks. We determine the data redundancy degree of recorded programs so that the system can support all the concurrent streaming requests for them and maintain as much availability as needed. We also present how to assign recording tasks to PVRs and playback the recorded programs without performance degradation. We show that our proposed scheme improves the storage efficiency significantly, compared with when PVRs do not cooperate with each other, while keeping the playbackability of each request similarly.

This paper presents a hybrid push/pull streaming scheme to take advantage of both the interval caching-based push method and the mesh-based pull method. When a new peer joins, a mesh-based pull method is adopted to avoid the overhead to reorganize the structure only if all of its potential preceding peers are likely to leave before the end of its playback. Otherwise, an interval caching-based push method is adopted so that the better performance of the push method can be maintained until it completes the playback. We demonstrate that our proposed scheme outperforms compared with when either the interval caching-based push method or mesh-based pull method is employed alone.

Establishing peer-to-peer (P2P) live streaming for mobile ad hoc network (MANET) requires an efficient scheme to deliver the real-time data in the infrastructure-less disaster environment. However, P2P membership management is difficult in the dynamic mobility and resource limited MANET. In this paper, we present a cross-layer design for P2P-MANET which integrates P2P DHT-based routing protocol and IPv6 routing protocol. Therefore, the proposed scheme can manage and recover the P2P overlay as well as selecting efficient routing path to multicast video streaming. The simulation results demonstrate that the proposed scheme performs relatively better than the layered approach or the off-the-shelf design in terms of the playback continuity and signaling overhead.
