Abstract :
To reduce the delay of video broadcast system, we analyze system-capacity in a discrete-time manner. And we propose a hybrid architecture MTreeTV which combines the use of P2P networks with dedicated streaming servers. We also evaluate the effect of the server and client parameters. Through analysis and simulation, we show that MTreeTV supports fast channel switching (<4S).1.
