Distributed Hash Tables (DHT) with order-preserving hash functions require load balancing to ensure an even item-load over all nodes. While previous item-balancing algorithms only...
In this paper, we assess the protection mechanisms entered into recent clients to fight against the Sybil attack in KAD, a widely deployed Distributed Hash Table. We study three m...
-- Peer-to-peer systems and applications are distributed systems without any centralized control. P2P systems form the basis of several applications, such as file sharing systems a...
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...
Chord is a distributed hash table (DHT) that requires only O(logn) links per node and performs searches with latency and message cost O(logn), where n is the number of peers in the...
