Resource searching in the current peer-to-peer (P2P) applications is mainly based on the keyword match. However, more and more P2P applications require an efficient semantic search...
Recently Peer-to-Peer networks (P2P) have gained great attention and popularity. One key challenging aspect in a P2P resource sharing environment is an efficient searching algorit...
Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) has been applied successfully in solving the Traveling Salesman Problem. Marco Dorigo et al. used Ant System (AS) to explore the Symmetric Traveling S...
In this paper we introduce Ant-Q, a family of algorithms which present many similarities with Q-learning (Watkins, 1989), and which we apply to the solution of symmetric and asymm...
Flooding and random walk (RW) are the two typical search algorithms in unstructured peer-to-peer networks. The flooding algorithm searches the network aggressively. It covers the m...
