Abstract

Because existing simulator can´t meet the need of the P2P streaming system, we research and design a P2P streaming simulator called P2PMedSim. Our simulator comes with a rich set of join, duration, and bandwidth distributions as well as overlay metrics. It has good visual interface and supports C/S model, tree model, and mesh model. The simulator design is introduced in details. Furthermore, we compare the original system and the improved syatem in testing part, which are both based on the mesh network topology.
