Adaptive data scheduling algorithm for P2P media streaming
一种自适应的P2P流媒体数据调度算法

In order to solve the problem of losing data block under the limited bandwidth in existed algorithms, a novel scheduling algorithm was proposed for P2P network, named Least-First Scheduling Algorithm (LFSA), which was simple to implement. Furthermore, it can adjust itself automatically to adapt to network heterogeneity, bandwidth fluctuation, and overlay dynamics. Experimental results show that LFSA can shorten the start delay time and achieve better performance than conventional strategies without any knowledge of the bandwidth of its partners or any special mechanism for the load balance.
