Abstract

In this paper, we have designed the integrated wire and wireless P2P framework using mobile agents to share efficiently resources as media file. Most of the P2P applications are used on the wire network. We propose the integrated wire and wireless P2P framework. Proposed P2P platform is based on JXTA of Sun Microsystems. But JXTA is pure peer-to-peer network model, so it sends message other peers as broadcast style to request resources. In this way, there are some problems as massage overload, bandwidth loss, etc. In order to solve this problem, we propose a hybrid peer-to-peer network model using mobile agent. Proposed scheme also solve existing hybrid pEp model's flaws which have the delay and low rate due to concentrated server. In proposed scheme, mobile agents that have autonomy and mobility are used to search the location of resources. Besides, mobile agents could solve the loss problem of the search result. To improve P2P QoS(Quality of Service), we could monitor peer's state information using PIP(Peer Information Protocol) of JXTA.
