Peer-to-peer (P2P) networks represent an effective way to share information, since there are no central points of failure or bottleneck. However, the flip side to the distributive...
Decentralized peer to peer (p2p) networks like Gnutella are attractive for certain applications because they require no centralized directories and no precise control over network ...
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...
—This paper presents a theoretic framework of optimal resource allocation and admission control for peer-topeer networks. Peer’s behavioral rankings are incorporated into the r...
Since entities participating in P2P networks are usually autonomous and therefore free to decide on their level of participation, mechanisms to resolve conflicts between individu...
