Hi ALL!<br>
<br>
Don't know specifically about BitTorrent, but I've found a lot of
results talking about the gains of using ECC for improving the
availability of data at p2p networks:<br>

<br>
These days I'm working on a paper's analisis that talks about using
"Erasure Codes" to do that (maybe one day I can finish my model on it):<br>

<br>
Searching now I've found this one page work exposing some "interesting" data:<br>

<br>
After I began to study about ECC this year I can't stop finding
examples of using them at network/computing world. But as Arnaud sad: "
Such codes are terribly sexy, but when it comes to real applications,
things are far less sexy." But as I didn't got yet that for BitTorrent
the "less sexy" means "don't needed", maybe the above work can inspire
some answer.<br>
