摘要

点对点(P2P)技术作为提高系统性能的一种方式已经得到了广泛的应用。P2P网络中的节点通过相互提供网络资源来协同工作。在本研究中，我们研究了视频流媒体中P2P技术的使用，并开发了一种分布式激励机制来防止搭便车。我们提出的解决方案结合了WebTorrent和Solana区块链，可以通过web浏览器访问。为了激励上传，一些接收到的视频块使用AES加密。区块链上的智能合约用于上传的第三方验证和管理对视频内容的访问。在测试网络上的实验结果表明，我们的系统在不影响视频流质量的情况下，加密和解密块的时间约为使用WebRTC的1/40。智能合约还被发现可以在大约860毫秒内快速验证上传。本文还探讨了如何有效地奖励上传的虚拟积分。

Decentralized Incentive Scheme for Peer-to-Peer Video Streaming using Solana Blockchain

Peer-to-peer (P2P) technology has gained popularity as a way to enhance system performance. Nodes in a P2P network work together by providing network resources to one another. In this study, we examine the use of P2P technology for video streaming and develop a distributed incentive mechanism to prevent free-riding. Our proposed solution combines WebTorrent and the Solana blockchain and can be accessed through a web browser. To incentivize uploads, some of the received video chunks are encrypted using AES. Smart contracts on the blockchain are used for third-party verification of uploads and for managing access to the video content. Experimental results on a test network showed that our system can encrypt and decrypt chunks in about 1/40th the time it takes using WebRTC, without affecting the quality of video streaming. Smart contracts were also found to quickly verify uploads in about 860 milliseconds. The paper also explores how to effectively reward virtual points for uploads.
