-- 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...
— Over the past few years, Peer-to-Peer (P2P) systems have become very popular for constructing overlay networks of many nodes (peers) that allow users geographically distributed...
— Many Peer-to-peer (P2P) applications such as media broadcasting and content distribution require a high performance overlay structure in order to deliver satisfying quality of ...
Load balancing is a critical issue for the efficient operation of peerto-peer networks. We give two new load-balancing protocols whose provable performance guarantees are within a...
We present a low-cost, decentralized algorithm for ID management in distributed hash tables (DHTs) managed by a dynamic set of hosts. Each host is assigned an ID in the unit inter...
