— In order to be part of a peer-to-peer (P2P) file sharing network a host must be fully powered-on all of the time. In addition to providing a user interface, a P2P host handles ...
This paper examines how computation can be mapped across the nodes of a distributed search system to effectively utilize available resources. We specifically address computationa...

— Numerous proposals exist for load balancing in peer-to-peer (p2p) networks. Some focus on namespace balancing, making the distance between nodes as uniform as possible. This te...
Sketch is a sublinear space data structure that allows one to approximately reconstruct the value associated with any given key in an input data stream. It is the basis for answer...
