—By combining an unstructured protocol with a DHT-based global index, hybrid peer-to-peer (P2P) improves search efficiency in terms of query recall and response time. The major c...
This paper proposes efficient algorithms for implementing multicast in heterogeneous workstation/PC clusters. Multicast is an important operation in many scientific and industri...
Distributed Web-server systems have been widely used to provide effective Internet services. The management of these systems requires dynamic controls of the Web traffic. With the...
