The contemporary high-speed networks, e.g. the Internet and asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) networks provide a convenient and cost-effective communication platform to carry the e...
—Hybrid P2P systems rely on the assumption that sufficient objects exist nearby in order to make the unstructured search component efficient. This availability depends on the o...
Game theoretic modeling and equilibrium analysis of congestion games have provided insights in the performance of Internet congestion control, road transportation networks, etc. D...
Complex and distributed systems are more and more common. Hardware is going from strength to strength and is embedded in high performance peer-to-peer networks mostly. The task of...
This paper studies the problem of realizing a common software clock among a large set of nodes without an external time reference (i.e., internal clock synchronization), any centr...
