Abstract

The use of random network coding has been reported in a real Peer-to-Peer Video-on-Demand (P2P VoD) system recently. While this demonstrates the practicality and effectiveness of network coding (NC) in one system implementation, the design space for different scheduling algorithms of P2P VoD using network coding has been hardly explored. In this paper, we extend our large-scale packet-level P2P VoD simulation platform based on PDNS to compare performance with and without NC. We adopt practical trace files from a popular P2P VoD company. In contrast to previous research, one surprising result from our extensive simulations is that P2P VoD using NC will increase the server load, though it can decrease the overhead of control messages.
