Towards ACPeer: an Access Control aware P2P System

P2P data management systems provide a scalable alternative to centralized architectures. Their adoption, however, is limited by the lack of possibility to control the access on the resources stored in the system. We address the problem of access control fo ...

Towards Fair Event Dissemination

Rachid Guerraoui, Maxime Monod

Event dissemination in large scale dynamic systems is typically claimed to be best achieved using decentralized peer-to-peer architectures. The rationale is to have every participant in the system act both as a client (information consumer) and as a server ...

Authentication-free fault-tolerant peer-to-peer service provisioning

Karl Aberer, Wojciech Galuba, Zoran Despotovic

The correct functioning of a peer-to-peer network relies on cooperative behavior of peers as service providers. Current approaches to detection and deterrence of non-cooperative behavior, such as reputation systems, rely on (1) global sharing of observatio ...
