—In this paper, we develop an analytical framework which explains the emergence of superpeer networks on execution of the commercial peer-to-peer bootstrapping protocols by incom...
An extensive analysis of user traffic on Gnutella shows a significant amount of free riding in the system. By sampling messages on the Gnutella network over a 24-hour period, we e...
Modeling peer-to-peer (P2P) networks is a challenge for P2P researchers. In this paper, we provide a detailed analysis of large-scale hybrid P2P overlay network topology, using Gn...
Abstract. In this paper, we propose a completely distributed topology generation mechanism named HPC5 for Gnutella network. A Gnutella topology will be efficient and scalable if it...
During recent years, peer-to-peer (P2P) file-sharing systems have evolved in many ways to accommodate growing numbers of participating peers. In particular, new features have cha...
