  7. Abstract:
  8. Information Technology In the recent years, Peer-to-Peer Networking and Applications has received significant attention from both the Internet users and research area. One of the most successful Applications of P2P networks is streaming the video which is applicable in Internet TV. On the other hand, Complex networks describe a wide range of networked systems in technology, nature and society, such as Internet, WWW networks, P2P networks, biological networks and social interactions.In this thesis we focus on mesh-pull based streaming networks and our goal is to propose a complex network model for such a P2PIPTV topology. To reach to this aim we consider the microscopic processes on each node that affects the assembling and evolving the network and propose a growth model which matches to mesh-based P2P protocols. The topological characteristics for this model will be investigated both analytically and by simulation. The analytical results will be obtained by using the continuum theory, the master equation approach and the rate equation approach which have been used to model scale free evolving networks previously. The model will be verified by real measurements and simulations. The results could be used to optimize such networks and to develop more realistic simulation for P2P mesh-based networks
