Peer-to-Peer computing has become a popular networking paradigm for file sharing, distributed computing, collaborative working, etc. The widely used unstructured Peer-to-Peer pro...
Abstract—We study the performance of several search algorithms on unstructured peer-to-peer networks, both using classic search algorithms such as flooding and random walk, as w...
A fundamental problem in peer-to-peer networks is how to locate appropriate peers efficiently to answer a specific query request. This paper proposes a model in which semantically...
— Existing peer-to-peer search networks generally fall into two categories: Gnutella-style systems that use arbitrary topology and rely on controlled flooding for search, and sy...
We describe a decentralized, adaptive mechanism for replica location in wide-area distributed systems. Unlike traditional, hierarchical (e.g, DNS) and more recent (e.g., CAN, Chor...
