Enhancing BitTorrent for efficient interactive video-on-demand streaming over MANETs

Providing interactive video-on-demand streaming over mobile ad hoc networks is still a challenge. Mobile nodes are dynamically and arbitrarily located in such a manner that interconnections between them change on a continual basis, thereby making timely video-delivery strenuous to achieve. To help to tackle this adversity, this paper proposes two BitTorrent-like algorithms. Their design concept lies in the combination of different criteria to...
