In this paper, we argue that a broad range of large-scale network services would benefit from a scalable mechanism for delivering state about a random subset of global participants. Key to this approach is ensuring that membership in the subset changes per ...
There has been an increasing research interest in developing full-text retrieval based on peer-to-peer (P2P) technology. So far, these research efforts have largely concentrated on efficiently distributing an index. However, ranking of the results retrieve ...
Non-trivial search predicates beyond mere equality are at the current focus of P2P research. Structured queries, as an important type of non-trivial search, have been studied extensively mainly for unstructured P2P systems so far. As unstructured P2P syste ...
This paper focuses on replication in DHT based structured overlay networks, and presents a theoretical framework for optimal replication in such networks with respect to query frequency. In particular, we determine the optimal replication factor for query- ...
A novel scheme for processing packets in a router is presented, which provides for load sharing among multiple network processors distributed within the router. It is complemented by a feedback control mechanism designed to prevent processor overload. Inco ...
We show in this paper that de Bruijn networks, despite providing efficient search while using constant routing table size, as well as simplicity of the understanding and implementation of such networks, are unsuitable where key distribution will be uneven, ...
The state-of-the-art techniques for processing multi-term queries in P2P environments are query flooding and inverted list intersection. However, it has been shown that due to scalability reasons both methods fail to support full-text search in large scale ...

Structured peer-to-peer overlay networks are a class of algorithms that provide efficient message routing for distributed applications using a sparsely connected communication network. In this paper, we formally verify a typical application running on a fi ...
