Description
Live video streaming over internet has attracted much attention nowadays and many mechanisms have been introduced to tackle challenges behind this applications. Recently streaming over peer to peer overlay networks is proposed as an scheme to build scalable video stream applications. This group in DML is aiming to inspect this field using peer to peer approaches. DML's peer to peer streaming group main goal is to study peer to peer overlay networks and their potentials for streaming applications.
The aim is to expand peer to peer overlay structures and mechanisms formerly design for file sharing application toward more complex application of video sharing espsially online video streaming.

Goals

•     design of peer to peer topology control mechanism tailored for video streaming
•     bulding a video content aware scheduler
