Abstract

BitTorrent is a new popular application layer network protocol used to distribute files. BitTorrent is efficient at content delivery by maximizing the upload utilization and by preventing unfairness. This paper discusses the BitTorrent architecture and protocol in great detail by discussing the tracker and all the messages sent between the peers and the tracker and also between peers and peers. Also this paper will describe how BitTorrent is efficient by looking at algorithms that decide which peers to upload to and which pieces of the file to download first.
