[SNCNW'09] P2P-Next: Technical and Legal Challenges

Abstract

P2P-Next aims at providing solutions and appli- cations for digital content production and distribution, while keeping a continued analytical focus on the regulatory arena and legal aspects.

In this paper, we address netorking, access control, and payment in P2P content distribution, three topics which are not only technically challenging, but they also require careful consideration of related legal and commercial issues.

Finally, a design proposal is presented. This design considers technical capabilities, legal requirements and it is flexible enough to support different business models.
