P2P Streaming Protocol Pro-incentive Parameters
This document analyzes the common parameters that are essential for deriving incentive mechanisms to promote peer cooperation and system robustness in a P2P system, and proposes to incorporate these pro- incentive parameters in information exchanges in the P2P streaming protocols to be specified, e.g., in the tracker protocol proposed in [draft-gu-ppsp-tracker-protocol], and in the future in the peer protocol to be specified.
