In this work we define and study a new model for the caching problem in a heterogeneous wireless network under a flash-crowd scenario. Using non-cooperative game theory, we cast t...

Peer-to-peer systems rely on scalable overlay networks that enable efficient routing between its members. Hypercubic topologies facilitate such operations while each node only nee...
Due to their simplicity and effectiveness, gossip-based membership protocols have become the method of choice for maintaining partial membership in large P2P systems. A variety of...
This paper deals with the emulation of atomic read/write (R/W) storage in dynamic asynchronous message passing systems. In static settings, it is well known that atomic R/W storag...
The paper presents distributed and parallel -approximation algorithms for covering problems, where is the maximum number of variables on which any constraint depends (for example...
