Abstract:
As services and applications move away from the one-to-many relationship of the client-server model towards many-to-many relations such as distributed cloud-based services and peer-to-peer networks, there is a need for a reusable model of how a node could work in such a network. We have constructed a reusable formally derived and verified model of a node in a peer-to-peer network for on-demand media streaming, validated and animated it, and then compared the results with simulations. We have thereby created an approach for analysing peer-to-peer node behaviour.
