TLDR
The challenges and solutions of providing live and on-demand video streaming in P2P environment are described and tree, multi-tree and mesh based systems are introduced.Abstract:
Video-over-IP applications have recently attracted a large number of users on the Internet. Traditional client-server based video streaming solutions incur expensive bandwidth provision cost on the server. Peer-to-Peer (P2P) networking is a new paradigm to build distributed network applications. Recently, several P2P streaming systems have been deployed to provide live and on-demand video streaming services on the Internet at low server cost. In this paper, we provide a survey on the existing P2P solutions for live and on-demand video streaming. Representative P2P streaming systems, including tree, multi-tree and mesh based systems are introduced. We describe the challenges and solutions of providing live and on-demand video streaming in P2P environment. Open research issues on P2P video streaming are also discussed.read more

A case for end system multicast
TL;DR: The potential benefits of transferring multicast functionality from end systems to routers significantly outweigh the performance penalty incurred and the results indicate that the performance penalties are low both from the application and the network perspectives.

SplitStream: high-bandwidth multicast in cooperative environments
TL;DR: The design and implementation of SplitStream are presented and experimental results show that SplitStream distributes the forwarding load among all peers and can accommodate peers with different bandwidth capacities while imposing low overhead for forest construction and maintenance.

Overcast: reliable multicasting with on overlay network
TL;DR: Simulations indicate that Overcast quickly builds bandwidth-efficient distribution trees that, compared to IP Multicast, provide 70%-100% of the total bandwidth possible, at a cost of somewhat less than twice the network load.

A case for end system multicast
TL;DR: Narada as discussed by the authors is an alternative architecture for end-to-end multicast, where end systems implement all multicast related functionality including membership management and packet replication, and self-organize into an overlay structure using a fully distributed protocol.
