Abstract

Computer-implemented methods and systems are provided for executing a peer-to-peer (P2P) protocol. The computer-implemented method may include determining a number of peers connected to the P2P file sharing network, determining a number of seeds connected to the P2P file sharing network and having a complete copy of a file, the file including a plurality of file parts, and sending a request to download the file. The computer-implemented method may further include, based on the request, computing a seed ratio and a comparison ratio for each of the plurality of file parts, and adjusting download/upload priority of each of the plurality of file parts when the seed ratio is less than a first predetermined threshold and the comparison ratio is less than a second predetermined threshold.
