@ ow can file sharing be realized in mobile

networks today?
@ ow will the upcoming 3G-networks
support file sharing?
@ What are the threats for file sharing and
how can they be overcome?

@ Transferring data from one mobile phone

to another
@ Mobile phone and network limit the
possibilities of mobile P2P
@ Low efficiency (CPU and memory)
@ Low bandwidth
@ Low power

@ ^n 2/2.5 there are limitations that are

impossible to overcome:
@ Operators do not allow to see mobile phones
^P address
@ Operators control data traffic including ports
suitable for them
@ Network does not offer any way to sustain
active connection in all situations
@ Voice and data can not be transferred
simultaneously

@ MMS could be used as a way of sending

data from one mobile note to another.
owever there are problems:
@ ow to know who has the information you
need?
@ MMS size is limited
@ MMS costs more than GPRS data
O    !#

@ We have to have a server
that keeps a record of
MS^SDN number and the
data that can be found from
that number
@ Downloader asks the data
and the person who is
downloaded permits or
denies download

@ All the major limitations could be

overcome if the mobile phone would be
connected to a computer which has P2P
software
@ We would only need a software to
communicate between the computer and
mobile phone:
@ Short distance: ^R, BT, PC suite etc.
@ Remotely: Over TTP

@ Within short distance we would not have

true mobile P2P:

@ A better solution would be to control fixed

network peer remotely
 %

@ For example over http we could control

the fixed network peer by using a
program called mobile eMule

not currently implement full download

@ ^n 3G true mobile P2P is possible due to

high bandwidth, efficient mobile phones
and simultaneous voice and data
capability
-> But will the operators allow P2P
software since is would lead to the loss of
revenues?
@ Viruses, spy- and adware
@ Digital rights management
  

@ 2/2.5G is not ready for mobile P2P.

owever with the aid of computer killer
applications could be developed

@ 3G does not have technical restrictions so

the future of mobile P2P will be mainly in
the hands of the operators
