APPARATUS FOR CONTROLLING PEER-TO-PEER AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING TRANSMISSION OVERLAY

摘要

PURPOSE: An apparatus for controlling peer-to-peer and a method for controlling transmission overlay are provided to enhance the transmission quality of contents by generating stable and efficient P2P(Peer-to-Peer) overlay. CONSTITUTION: A peer registration unit(210) registers plural kinds of peer information, and an overlay generating unit(220) receives an overlay generation request of desirable contents from a request peer among the plural peers. The overlay generating unit generates not only a P2P overlay based on the information of a network to which plural peers are connected but also the plural kinds of peer information. The overlay generating unit considers the P2P overlay to provide the request peer with the connection information for receiving desirable contents.
