NexTech/AP2PS 2010
Posted: October 26, 2010 Filed under: academics Leave a comment »I am currently in Florence, Italy, at the NexTech conference, where I will be presenting a paper we wrote called “On the Performance Evaluation and Analysis of the Hybridised Bittorrent Protocol with Partial Mobility Characteristics”.
The scope of the conference includes many topics on P2P systems, both innovations and optimizations of the P2P protocols. Also, at NexTech there are a number of other conferences taking place, including UBICOMM, ADVCOMP and semapro.
The paper I will be presenting talks about including partial mobility characteristics within Bittorrent networks, in order to allow mobile peers exchange data more efficiently and in a mobile-friendly manner, where their mobile connections (3G, GPRS and so on) are not congested by the network requiring them to upload too much in order to be allowed to receive pieces/blocks. In case you are interested in this topic, I will soon be uploading (after the conference is finished), the article in PDF format directly from the published proceedings.
