A New P2P File Sharing System Based on the Access Distribution Property

Abstract

The current Internet traffics depend more on the P2P type communication than the legacy client-server type communication. The P2P communication has been applied to diverse systems such as the VoIP and the file sharing system for the P2P potential ability. The distributed file sharing system over the P2P network using DHT (Distributed Hash Table) can especially provide the quick search, while the file accesses from the remote user does not follow the uniform distribution causing the degradation of searching performance. In this paper, we firstly propose the new searching algorithm based on the access distribution revising the Chord algorithm using the distribution management host. Secondly, the mechanism of the distribution management host is to be applied as the distribution algorithm maintained over the all Chord ring structure. Evaluation of the performance of proposed mechanism is carried out after the implementation of the algorithms using management host.
