Inside the New Coolstreaming: Principles, Measurements and Performance Implications (2008, background): “The main constraint in prior studies was the lack of knowledge in the architecture and control mechanisms due to the proprietary nature of the commercial P2P streaming systems, in which few measurement studies [17] [18] could only seek for mechanisms such as packet sniffing in trying to capture the ”
