Issues in Peer-to-Peer Networking: a Coding Optimization Approach

In this paper we consider a linear optimization approach for studying download finish times in peer-to-peer networks that allow but do not require coding. We demonstrate that using the network coding framework simplifies analysis even in scenarios where the optimal solution does not require coding....
