In this paper, we consider hybrid peer-to-peer systems where users form an unstructured peer-to-peer network with the purpose of assisting a server in the distribution of data. We...
Much work has been done to address the need for incentive models in real deployed peer-to-peer networks. In this paper, we discuss problems found with the incentive model in a lar...

In this paper we study the performance trade-offs between conventional cellular and ad-hoc peer-to-peer wireless networks. We compare through simulations the performance of the tw...
— The peer-to-peer network for sharing information and data through direct exchange has emerged rapidly in recent years. The searching problem is a basic issue that addresses the...
Abstract. Interest-based communities are a natural arrangement of distributed systems that prune the search space and allow for better dissemination of information to participating...
While current search engines seem to easily handle the size of the data available on the Internet, they cannot provide fresh results. The most up-to-date data always resides on the...
