The peer-to-peer (P2P) paradigm has emerged recently, mainly by file sharing systems like Napster or Gnutella and in terms of scalable distributed data structures. Because of the d...
Current integration trends embrace the prosperity of single-chip multi-core processors. Although multi-core processors deliver significantly improved system throughput, single-thr...
Traditional security systems are not easily scalable and can become single points of failure or performance bottlenecks when used on a large-scale distributed system such as the I...
