Recent development of Peer-to-Peer (P2P) technologies has lead to many cost effective and highly scalable systems for content distribution and multimedia streaming. That said, building P2P networks for efficient data dissemination, streaming, and searching are challenging. In this research, we investigate topologies and protocols for fast data dissemination, fast content search, robustness to peer failure, and peer incentive to join the network.
