Inferring the P2Ps Super Peers with Packet Sampling

Based on the small-world and power-law characters of P2P, the IPS is proposed to identify the P2P super nodes. IPS adopts packets sampling to identify seed nodes. Then according to the traffic relationship between the P2P nodes, IPS identifies all the other P2P nodes originating from the seed nodes. Finally, IPS regards the nodes with large connection degree as super nodes and outputs them. The validity of proposed method is verified by the experiments using Internet traces.
