A Game Theoretic Analysis of Resource Pricing and Sharing in P2P Networks

—This paper proposed an incentive mechanism of resource pricing and sharing to achieve the maximum of profits, which based on game theory. Firstly, we proved the Cournot equilibrium sharing within different price and cost functions to achieve the maximum profits. Secondly, we analyze and solve the Cournot equilibrium sharing, the unit profit and the total profits. Finally, simulation show that the proposed model relationships among the number of providers, different of price and cost functions, the maximum profits parameter, the unit profit and the total profits.
