Performance characteristics, such as response time, throughput and scalability, are key quality attributes of distributed applications. Current practice, however, rarely applies s...
Abstract. Distributed cluster environments are becoming popular platforms for high performance computing in lieu of single-vendor supercomputers. However, the reliability and susta...
Distributed System design is a highly complicated and non-trivial task. The problem is characterised by the need to design multi-threaded, multi-processor, and multimedia systems....
The open and anonymous nature of a P2P network makes it an ideal medium for attackers to spread malicious content. In this paper, we propose a reputation-based trust management sy...
Peer-to-Peer (P2P) systems are currently used in a variety of applications. File sharing applications and ad hoc networking have fueled the usage of these systems. P2P systems gen...
