The increasing integration of novel network applications, in particular, peer-to-peer (P2P) applications, into the Internet content distribution infrastructure is posing significant new challenges to achieving efficient and fair utilization of Internet network resources. In particular, by largely network oblivious, these network applications can cause substantial problems on network efficiency, Internet economics, and application performance.The objective of this project is to develop a novel, light-weight framework called P4P that provides standard, modular interfaces to allow Internet network providers and network applications to jointly optimize their respective performance.The P4P interfaces are designed through rigorous mathematical derivations to achieve extensibility, scalability and efficiency in large-scale, heterogeneous networks. The interfaces consider not only network provider privacy but also end-user privacy. The interfaces take into consideration not only traditional performance metrics but also increasingly important economic and business policies.This project advances the state of the art in facilitating the interactions across different Internet network layers and entities, and presents a transformative research that enables others to effectively integrate network applications into network management.The interfaces designed in the project will be specified in an open, standard language. The reference implementations will be made available broadly to facilitate integration into the Internet infrastructure. A P4P research group will be formed to maximize open research and disseminate results widely among network operators and application developers.

新的网络应用，特别是对等（P2P）应用，越来越多地集成到互联网内容分发基础设施中，这对实现互联网网络资源的有效和公平利用提出了重大的新挑战。特别是，由于这些网络应用程序在很大程度上是网络遗忘的，它们可能会导致网络效率、互联网经济和应用程序性能方面的实质性问题。模块化接口，允许互联网网络提供商和网络应用程序共同优化各自的性能。P4P接口通过严格的数学推导，以实现可扩展性，可扩展性和效率在大规模，异构网络。这些接口不仅考虑网络提供商的隐私，还考虑最终用户的隐私。该接口不仅考虑了传统的性能指标，还考虑了日益重要的经济和商业政策。该项目推进了促进不同Internet网络层和实体之间交互的最新技术水平，并提出了一项变革性研究，使其他人能够有效地将网络应用集成到网络管理中。该项目中设计的接口将在一个开放的，标准语言。参考实现将广泛提供，以促进集成到Internet基础设施中。将成立一个P4P研究小组，以最大限度地扩大开放研究，并在网络运营商和应用程序开发人员中广泛传播研究成果。
