Summary :

Various kinds of content replication strategies in pure P2P networks have recently been examined. However, such strategies have not been thoroughly considered in hybrid P2P networks. In a hybrid P2P network, the target content can easily be found because there is a server that controls each peer and its content. Therefore, it is important to decrease futile storage resource consumption, since the data search cost through the network is relatively small. This paper proposes an effective content replication strategy that takes into account storage capacity restrictions. In brief, this method restricts the number of contents replicas possessed by a peer using threshold-based control by relocating or deleting excess replicas. Furthermore, the effectiveness of the proposal is evaluated using computer simulations.
