- Description
- This paper describes a systematic approach to provide support at the user agent level for peer-to-peer based multimedia communications us-ing SIP (session initiation protocol). In a society that is becoming in-creasingly mobile, the advantages of engaging in interactive sessions without relying on central servers or infrastructure are clear. Yet, cur-rently many user agents and devices have little support for peer-to-peer communications. In this paper, we motivate for the use of structured peer-to-peer protocols called DHTs, as a foundation for a peer-to-peer layer. We introduce the concept of "DHTplug-ins" which assist in ab-stracting the interface between the higher level application and the pro-prietary APIs exposed by the underlying DHTs, allowing us to manipu-late user agents with peer-to-peer logic. This embeddable-DHT concept allows these user agents to use different DHTs with one common inter-face and participate in multiple overlays. We show how an open source SIP user agent was thus modified and how realtime communications were supported.
