Abstract
Conference Title: 2016 International Wireless Communications and Mobile Computing Conference (IWCMC) Conference Start Date: 2016, Sept. 5 Conference End Date: 2016, Sept. 9 Conference Location: Paphos, Cyprus The success of Peer-to-Peer (P2P) systems has led to its utilization in a wide range of application domains other than file sharing. P2P media streaming is rapidly growing, consequently many P2P streaming systems have been deployed. However, peers in P2P environments are heterogeneous, and differ in resources and demands which may result in a poor streaming experience. This issue may be addressed by enabling adaptive streaming.
