Conclusions A gradient overlay topology can improve P2P live-streaming Necessary and sufficient condition for convergence to such a topology for an algorithm based on random sampling Corresponds to sufficiently high sampling rate Future work Improved convergence rate through neighbor sampling Dynamic networks and utilities 15 H.
