Research on the next generation network architecture is a hot topic. To meet the requirements of the new Internet environment and eliminate the shortcomings of the existing network, integrated network is presented. In the naming system part, a system based on Chord algorithm was used, and multi-path is introduced to improve the name resolution reliability. In this paper, we mainly pay attention to the reliability model of integrated naming network system which can be attributed as a multi-path transmission issue, and the name resolution paths used in the network path may be cut off by attacks or other events. This paper focuses on parallel multi-path, which is recoverable when failure happens, transmission reliability, and proposes a corresponding reliability model to get the probability of successful transmission in such conditions. Finally, a numerical simulation is devised to demonstrate the multi-path name resolution's high reliability.
In peer-to-peer （P2P） video on demand （VoD） system, once the P2P downloading rate cannot satisfy the need of playback, server is quickly referred to for help in providing enough bandwidth. Thus the switch of downloading from other peers （P2P） and server （HTTP） exists. This paper uses the proportion of P2P downloading amount （PPDA） during the video watching process to measure server load. This article is interested in finding a better strategy or switch rule between P2P and HTTP downloading for saving server bandwidth. The authors suggest and model a kind of switch rule based on local buffer amount, using mathematical theory of Brownian motion. It can effectively alleviate the impact of P2P rate fluctuation, reduce the switch times and improve the PPDA by at least 3%-5% on the basis of the former switch rule, which means substantial cost can be saved. Particularly the PPDA is related with the ratio of playback bit rate to the HTTP downloading rate which means the PPDA can be restricted by controlling the ratio in the real-world system. Though the result comes from constant bit rate （CBR） video supposition, it provides perspective and method for variable bit rate （VBR） application, and valuable insights for the future development of P2P VoD system.
