BitTorrent Background
1. The BitTorrent Protocol
BitTorrent is a pioneering distributed communication protocol invented by Bram Cohen in 2001.
As a peer-to-peer protocol, it facilitates the transfer of large, highly demanded files, eliminating the need for a trusted central server.
The BitTorrent protocol enables client software endpoints ("clients") to collaborate with each other to enable reliable simultaneous distribution of large files to multiple clients, reducing reliance on any single weak point (such as a server connection). It does this by attempting to make efficient use of every client's upload and download bandwidth to balance peer-to-peer content delivery across all clients.
To find a peer that has a file or portion thereof, peers either "announce" to a tracker, a server that keeps track of which peers have which files available, or find them via the DHT, a distributed database of peers. Through this process, all peers are naturally segmented into
"swarms" of users, with every user in each swarm having a common interest in exchanging pieces of a specific file……. Follow For the next part …
