Prevention of pollution attacks (GSoC)

 

Hello, P2psp community!

I am GSoC student and I am really interested in your ideas for gsoc,
especially about prevention of dos and pollution attacks.
Few words about me: I am studying at Perm State National Research
University (Russia); At university my main work is p2p networks and fault
tolerance of p2p-networks. I worked with DHT (Kademlia, unfortunately only
theory) and BitTorrent. Also I have experience with PeerSim
(p2p-simulator); I have implemented BT-protocol for it.

I am already contacted a mentor and received a paper about defense
strategies for streaming p2p networks (Pollution attacks detection in the
P2PSP live streaming system). I noticed that in section Analyzing results
there is only theoretical study.
I want to implement P2psp-protocol for PeerSim simulator in order to
testing new strategies, theoretical studies and etc.
Why PeerSim? It is the most popular p2p-simulator. (
http://scholar.google.ru/scholar?hl=en&q=peersim - 275 citations). Also it
mentioned in 1 <http://dl.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=1232932> 2
<http://dl.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=2501660> .
I want implement it before 16 march, because on gsoc I want work with
Prevention of pollution attacks and simulator will help evaluate future
results.
What do you think? Thanks in advance.
