Abstract :
A challenge of peer-to-peer (P2P) storage is to build reliable data storage from inherently unreliable P2P network, and to do so efficiently. In this paper, we investigate the use of adaptive erasure resilient code (ERC) which changes ERC fragment size according to the size of the file distributed. We show that the adaptive ERC may greatly improve the efficiency and reliability of P2P storage. A number of design policies and strategies for the P2P storage application are also investigated
