Abstract :
Because of nodes in P2P networks are self-organization, part of nodes in P2P networks appear selfish and P2P sharing of network resources do not achieve the desired efficiency. This paper presents an incentive mechanism based on game theory integrate with Mixed Strategy Nash Equilibrium, it is used to detect selfish nodes in P2P networks and urge them to join the network nodes consciously. Finally, this incentive mechanism is verified to be availability with simulation tools named Gambit.
