In this dissertation I examine information processing in communities of product technology users – that is the question of how individual level information exchange in networks of personal relationships influences firm-level outcomes. I draw on research in ...
The obvious recent advances in areas such as video compression and network architectures allow for the deployment of novel video distribution applications. These have the potential to provide ubiquitous media access to end users. In recent years, applicati ...
The internet is moving rapidly towards an interactive milieu where online communities and economies gain importance over their traditional counterparts. While this shift creates opportunities and benefits that have already improved our day-to-day life, it ...
Efficiently handling reputation is important in dealing with free-riding, malicious attacks and random failures in self-organized communication systems. At the same time, work in this context is often found to be relevant in many other disciplines, in part ...
Network Monitoring is a challenging problem that has received a lot of attention in the Internet community, particularly in the context of overlay networks. Independently, recent advances in Network Coding have shown that it is possible to increase network ...
Online social networks have gained importance in recent years. Furthermore, there is a need for designing smart applications for social networks which take into account the behaviour of dynamical processes over these networks. This requires structural know ...
The eLogbook is a collaborative Web-based environment deployed by Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne (EPFL). It consists of an activity- oriented space where a community of educators, teaching assistants and students can form groups, conduct ...
In this paper, we present a query-driven indexing/retrieval strategy for efficient full text retrieval from large document collections distributed within a structured P2P network. Our indexing strategy is based on two important properties: (1) the generate ...
This paper presents a distributed algorithm to disseminate events in a publish/subscribe system, where processes publish events of certain topics, organized in a hierarchy, and expect events of topics they subscribed to. Every topic defines a dynamic notio ...
This research work falls on a multidisciplinary domain, where there is a cross feeding between Computer, Information Sciences and Cognitive Sciences. This PhD dissertation has focused on the interaction and collaboration issues in Web-based experimentation ...
