In this paper we present a rigorous treatment to structured overlay maintenance in decentralized peerto-peer (P2P) systems subject to various system and network failures. we prese...
Usually complex systems are controlled by an operator co-operating with a computer-based controller. The controlling software runs in continuous interaction with the operator and c...
