This paper describes a decentralized peer-to-peer model for building a Web crawler. Most of the current systems use a centralized client-server model, in which the crawl is done by...
Peer-to-peer systems offer attractive system management properties, including the ability of components that join the network to self-organize; scalability up to tens of thousands...
This paper presents speculative TCP connection admission, a mechanism for improving sub-optimal request distribution decisions in cluster-based servers. Overloaded server nodes in...
— Efficient and scalable live-streaming overlay construction has become a hot topic recently. In order to improve the performance metrics, such as startup delay, source-to-end de...
