  • Abstract
    This paper proposes a solution to the colossal needs of VoD by using a modified version of the popular file-sharing protocol BitTorrent. Our technique uses self-adjusting peer groups, called alliances, to cluster peers together that need similar parts of a video. In doing so, it ensures that peers receive the necessary video segments in a timely manner, and that bandwidth utilization is optimized.
