| Summary: | The peer-to-peer (P2P) file sharing protocol has evolved from depending on Internet
connection provided by the cellular network, to free Internet connectivity through
Wi-Fi technology. Yet it incurs other problems, especially with regards to its
energy-efficiency. This paper analyses the current P2P protocols that have been
adopted on different mobile platforms, including Android, Symbian, iOS,
Blackberry, and Windows Mobile OS, as well as tablets with different operating
systems (OS), based on their reliability, delay-guarantee, rate-efficiency and energyefficiency.
The analysis involves P2P protocols through various communication
interfaces, which require Internet connectivity (i.e., WiFI) the ones that avoid
Internet connection altogether, (i.e., P2P protocols over the IEEE 802.15 PAN
standards Bluetooth, UWB, RFID, and ZigBee). |
