Abstract:

A penalty strategy is proposed to deal with "free riding" behavior in peer-to-peer networks by providing differentiated services to requesting nodes for "free riding" behavior and requesting nodes for resource sharing to reduce the personal gain of requesting nodes for "free riding" behavior. We model the hybrid peer-to-peer networks using a multiple working vacation M/M/c+d queue model with two types of servers and negative customers. The stationary distribution of the system is obtained by using the method of matrix-geometric solution. Numerical experiments are conducted to quantitatively portray the impact of parameter variations on system performance and to compare the average individual revenue of requesting nodes. The experimental results show that the average individual revenue of type I requesting nodes is at least 20% higher compared to the average individual revenue of type II requesting nodes, regardless of the vacation parameter level.

Key words: hybrid peer-to-peer network, free riding, queue model, matrix-geometric solution
