Semantic overlay networks cluster peers that are semantically, thematically or socially close into groups by means of a rewiring procedure that is periodically executed by each pe...
Abstract. This paper addresses the problem of building scalable semantic overlay networks. Our approach follows the principle of data independence by separating a logical layer, th...
Peer Data Management Systems (PDMSs) have been introduced as a solution to the problem of large-scale sharing of semantically rich data. A PDMS consists of semantic peers connecte...
Peer-to-peer (P2P) Web search has gained a lot of interest lately, due to the salient characteristics of P2P systems, namely scalability, fault-tolerance and load-balancing. Howev...
