Abstract
This paper presents our results designing a peer-to-peer (P2P) video content distribution network (CDN). Based on a distributed hash table (DHT) algorithm and developed as an extension of an existing on-demand streaming server, this CDN is designed to improve server streaming capacity without any infrastructure upgrade to deal with large networks of information screens. Experimental results show that the design is an appropriate approach for video content distribution with interesting scalable and availability features.
