ABSTRACT:
Multimedia content delivery to capable smart phones with
high-speed next-generation Internet connectivity is becoming commonplace.
However, the openness of delivery demands adaptive and robust management of
intellectual property rights. The purpose of this article is to describe a
framework to address the central issues in content delivery: a scalable
peer-to-peer-based content delivery model. Our method pairs the delivery with a
secure access control model that enables data providers to secure a return from
making their original content available. Our work resulted in a prototype
implementation written in Java that includes a client for the Android mobile
platform. Adding robust trust management to scalable peer-to-peer content
delivery is the major significance of our work.
