Abstract. The research project CASCOM (Context-aware Business Application Service Co-ordination in Mobile Computing Environments) will implement, validate, and trial value-added su...
We propose a new p2p network topology that reduces bandwidth consumption and provides complete searches by employing a tree hierarchy of indexing nodes that facilitates the search...
Concept Search extends syntactic search, i.e., search based on the computation of string similarity between words, with semantic search, i.e., search based on the computation of s...
Decentralized and unstructured peer-to-peer (P2P) networks such as Gnutella are attractive for large-scale information retrieval and search systems due to scalability, fault-tolera...
RDF-based P2P networks have a number of advantages compared with simpler P2P networks such as Napster, Gnutella or with approaches based on distributed indices such as CAN and CHO...
