Abstract

We propose two new greedy algorithms to be used by software clients running the BitTorrent peer to peer protocol: a new peer selection algorithm and a new piece selection algorithm. We provide experimental results showing that the proposed algorithms are better than the ones currently in use. When used together in our experiments, the algorithms decreased the expected download time by?? % on average when compared to an identical client running the standard Rarest First and Choke/Random Unchoke algorithms. 1
