An Admission Control Policy Based on Social Networks for P2P Systems

To make the Internet today more connective with better performance, we developed the SoftInternet system, which consists of application layer proxies operated in P2P structure. To keep malicious peers out of the system in the beginning, we propose the model for admission control policy based on trust friend recommendations in social networks. We simulate the model to analyze the parameters and its performance. It is concluded that our model can effectively protect the system from malicious peers while keep good expandability of the system. In the end, we introduce the implementation of the model in SoftInternet, and discuss future works.
