Peer-to-peer Networks and Complementary Goods: The Impact of Openness and Innovation on Profitable Piracy

Texier, Thomas Le; Gordah, Maher - In: Economic Analysis 44 (2011), pp. 15-37

File-sharing is often depicted as detrimental to traditional commercial activities and tends to dissuade official digital goods’ producers from innovating. Meanwhile, evidence shows that producers are likely to provide complementary hardware goods that are compatible with digital goods...

ON COVERAGE BOUNDS OF UNSTRUCTURED PEER-TO-PEER NETWORKS

CHANDRA, JOYDEEP; GANGULY, NILOY - In: Advances in Complex Systems (ACS) 14 (2011) 04, pp. 611-633

In this paper, we develop methods to estimate the network coverage of a TTL-bound query packet undergoing flooding on an unstructured p2p network. The estimation based on the degree distribution of the networks, reveals that the presence of certain cycle-forming edges, that we name as cross and...

Preferential survival in models of complex ad hoc networks

Kong, Joseph S.; Roychowdhury, Vwani P. - In: Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications 387 (2008) 13, pp. 3335-3347

There has been a rich interplay in recent years between (i) empirical investigations of real-world dynamic networks, (ii) analytical modeling of the microscopic mechanisms that drive the emergence of such networks, and (iii) harnessing of these mechanisms to either manipulate existing networks,...

A FORMAL LANGUAGE THEORETIC APPROACH TO DISTRIBUTED COMPUTING ON DYNAMIC NETWORKS

LÁZÁR, KATALIN ANNA - In: Advances in Complex Systems (ACS) 13 (2010) 03, pp. 253-280

In this paper, we present a formal language theoretic approach to the behavior of complex systems of cooperating and communicating agents performing distributed computation on dynamic networks. In particular, we model peer-to-peer networks and the information harvest of Internet crawlers on the...

Incentive Schemes in Peer-to-Peer Networks

Loginova, Oksana; Lu, Haibin; Wang, X. Henry - In: Topics in Theoretical Economics 9 (2009) 1, pp. 1501-1501

In this paper we study the optimal file-sharing mechanism in a peer-to-peer network with a mechanism design perspective. This mechanism improves upon existing incentive schemes. In particular, we show that peer-approved scheme is never optimal and service-quality scheme is optimal only under...
