Optimal pricing for peer-to-peer sharing with network externalities
[article]
2020
arXiv
pre-print
In this paper, we analyse how a peer-to-peer sharing platform should price its service (when imagined as an excludable public good) to maximize profit, when each user's participation adds value to the ...
The bounded utility model fits many infrastructure sharing applications with bounded network value, in which complete coverage has a finite user valuation (e.g., WiFi or hotspot). ...
. • We study the optimal pricing for a peer-to-peer sharing platform under incomplete information, by considering both the infrastructure and content sharing applications (with bounded and unbounded network ...

A mechanism for pricing and resource allocation in peer-to-peer networks
2011
Electronic Commerce Research and Applications
In this study, we design a pricing and allocation mechanism for a peer-to-peer (P2P) network that allows users in a firm to effectively share their computing resources. ...
With this pricing scheme, no individual user has an incentive to overutilize shared resources, thereby avoiding the 'Tragedy of the Commons' for the P2P network. ...

Comparing economic incentives in peer-to-peer networks
2004
Computer Networks
Users who join a peer-to-peer network have, in general, sub-optimal incentives to contribute to the network, because of the externalities that exist between them. ...

Note that in this solution, if it is optimal for any peer to contribute files, then it is optimal for all peers to share files (since the marginal costs and benefits of file sharing are the same for all ...

User-generated content can be distributed at a low cost using peer-to-peer (P2P) networks, but the free-rider problem hinders the utilization of P2P networks. ...
Since for and for , the price will converge to the optimal price starting from any initial price. We compare the above price adjustment process with that in [34] . ...

Abstract: In order to create incentives for Internet traffic providers not to discriminate with respect to certain applications on the basis of network capacity requirements, the concept of market driven ...
An economic framework for market driven network neutrality in broadband Internet is provided, consisting of congestion pricing and quality of service differentiation. ...
There is no social planner to globally optimize capacities and prices for all traffic service networks. ...

Digital Business Models for Peer-to-Peer Networks: Analysis and Economic Issues
2006
Social Science Research Network
Peer-to-peer (P2P) services allow users to share networked resources, notably bandwidth and content, from the edges of the network. ...
These services have been popularized because of file sharing -particularly the sharing of unlicensed copyrighted files. However, content owners are increasingly exploring the ability of peer-to-peer ...
The most common solution is using explicit or implicit pricing to endogenize the externality that peers impose on the network. ...
