Abstract. Is it possible to treat large scale distributed systems as physical systems? The importance of that question stems from the fact that the behavior of many P2P systems is ...
In this paper, we define a simple but scalable framework for peer-to-peer data sharing systems, in which the problem of answering queries over a network of semantically related p...
We have designed, built, and analyzed a distributed parallel storage system that will supply image streams fast enough to permit multi-user, "real-time", video-like appl...
