The efficiency of Peer-to-Peer (P2P) systems is largely dependent on the overlay constructions. Due to the random selection of logical neighbors, there often exists serious topolog...
Aiming at improving file download speed, existing large-scale P2P content distribution systems substantially employ a multi-source parallel downloading scheme to allow peers servi...
The dominant existing routing strategies employed in peerto-peer(P2P) based information retrieval(IR) systems are similarity-based approaches. In these approaches, agents depend o...
