“…Previous experiments have tested the effect of a small number of hubs on the accuracy of first seeder identification [4]. When a small number of hubs is introduced to the Foxy network, the probability of identifying the first seeder remains the same.…”

“…Ieong, et al [5] have shown that the seeder curve -a plot of the number of uploaders (seeders) over time -provides information about the number of seeders as well as the stage of P2P file sharing. However, monitoring rules derived for detecting the first uploader using the seeder curve have high error rates as the number of hub nodes increases [4]. A second monitoring strategy used three rules to monitor search queries in the Foxy P2P network to identify the first uploader [3].…”

Experiments with the Foxy P2P network have demonstrated that the first uploader of a file can be identified when search queries are submitted to all the network nodes during initial file sharing. However, in real Foxy networks, file search queries are not transmitted to the entire Foxy network and this process may not identify the first uploader. This paper presents a set of validation rules that validate the observed first uploader. The validation rules define the seeder curve that consistently describes the number of uploaders over time. Analysis of four scenarios shows improved accuracy at detecting the first uploader and that, in situations with insufficient competition for file content, the first uploader may not be identified precisely.
