| Abstract | In its current art, peer-to-peer streaming solution has been mainly employed in the domain of live event broadcasting. In such a paradigm, users are required to simultaneously participate the streaming, which yields tremendous bandwidth pool to alleviate the server load. However, little effort has been paid to study the performance gain when peer-to-peer solution is deployed into the domain of Video-on-Demand (VoD) applications, when users have the freedom to access a large pool of media files at their preferred times. Users of VoD applications exhibit file-dependent and time-varying access patterns, which are hard to simulate without realistic guidance from the operational system observation. In this paper, we present an empirical study on the traces collected by the Vanderbilt University media streaming service over a period of 8 months. We pay special attention to peer aggregation around one media file, in which peer-to-peer streaming is able to play an essential role. With this regard, we investigate three key factors: file popularity, request inter-arrival time, and user online duration. Our analysis proves the existence of skewed file popularity, concentrated user requests, and long enough online duration. Furthermore, through replaying the trace via simulation, we show that peer-to-peer streaming could reduce the server load by as high as 90% over popular files. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
