This paper proposes a hybrid architecture for distributed virtual environments, utilizing servers alongside peer-to-peer components. Current research into peer-based systems seeks...
Abstract. In this paper, we describe the design of PIRS, a peer-topeer information retrieval system. PIRS satisfies many of the goals of P2P computing in a way that other P2P IR s...
We describe the design of Mariposa, an experimental distributed data management system that provides high performance in an environment of high data mobility and heterogeneous hos...
