Home-to-home media streaming system based on Adaptive FastReplica

This paper proposes a home-to-home media streaming system which supports UPnP A/V devices to multicast massive content to several devices in different UPnP-enabled home networks. This system is based on the traffic control mechanism defined in the UPnP QoS architecture and a peer-to-peer distribution scheme. With these schemes, the designed system enables a source UPnP media server to stream high quality content to multiple UPnP renderers in physically separated homes through peer-to-peer overlay paths established between home servers with content distribution and QoS device capability.
