This paper presents a support for the development of Distributed Virtual Environments (DVEs) on P2P architectures. A hierarchical overlay is defined by pairing each peer with a wei...
Abstract The performance of peer-to-peer and overlay networks depends to a great extent on their awareness of the underlying network’s properties. Several schemes for estimating ...
The success of the P2P idea has created a huge diversity of approaches, among which overlay networks, for example, Gnutella, Kazaa, Chord, Pastry, Tapestry, P-Grid, or DKS, have r...

— Overlay-based multicast has been proposed as a key alternative for large-scale group communication. There is ample motivation for such an approach, as it delivers the scalabili...
Many unstructured peer to peer (P2P) systems rely on a Peer Sampling Service (PSS) that returns randomly sampled nodes from the population comprising the system. PSS protocols are...
