Xinyan Zhang, Jiangchuan Liu · 2004
In this paper, we propose a novel multicast streaming protocol foroverlay networks, called Gossip Based Streaming (GBS). In GBS,streaming contents are not come from a single upstream source,but delivered from several sources to a client. Though being similarto existing gossip protocols, the unique requirements forstreaming, such as continuous playback, are addressed in our design.Preliminary results show that GBS performs much better indynamic user environments.
