Abstract-- Broadcast-based Peer-to-Peer (P2P) networks, including flat (e.g., Gnutella) and two-layer super-peer implementations (e.g., Kazaa), are extremely popular nowadays due t...
—P2P platforms have been criticized because of the heavy strain that some P2P services can inflict on costly interdomain links of network operators. It is therefore necessary to...

Abstract—In order to improve scalability and reduce maintenance overhead for structured Peer-to-Peer systems, researchers design optimal architectures with constant degree and lo...
We present GAB, a search algorithm for hybrid P2P networks, that is, networks that search using both flooding and a DHT. GAB uses a gossip-style algorithm to collect global statis...
Current peer-to-peer (P2P) systems often suffer from a large fraction of freeriders not contributing any resources to the network. Various mechanisms have been designed to overcom...
