Abstract. The ever-increasing popularity of peer-to-peer (P2P) systems provides a strong motivation for designing a dependable P2P system. Dependability in P2P systems can be viewe...
Gnutella overlays have evolved to use a two-tier topology. However, we observed that the new topology had only achieved modest improvements in search success rates. Also, the new ...
1 The unstructured Peer-to-Peer (P2P) systems usually use a “blind search” method to find the requested data object by propagating a query to a number of peers randomly. In or...
—Hybrid P2P systems rely on the assumption that sufficient objects exist nearby in order to make the unstructured search component efficient. This availability depends on the o...
Distributed peer-to-peer systems rely on voluntary participation of peers to effectively manage a storage pool. In such systems, data is generally replicated for performance and a...
