— In future networks based on the Differentiated Services (DiffServ) architecture, users may be provided with the opportunity to choose their Assured Forwarding (AF) class. Users...
Advances in sensing and communication technology make sensor networks a convenient and cost effective tool for collecting data in hard to reach and hazardous areas Increasingly, s...
Efficient full-text keyword search remains a challenging problem in P2P systems. Most of the traditional keyword search systems on DHT overlay networks perform the join operation ...
Rational and selfish nodes in P2P systems usually lack effective incentives to cooperate, contributing to the increase of free-riders, and degrading the system performance. Variou...
