Promoting synergies for sustainability through peer-to-peer sharing: an analysis of drivers and barriers

Claudia Rebeca Binder Signer, Ralph Hansmann

Peer-to-peer (P2P) sharing may foster sustainability synergistically by saving resources, reducing costs and promoting satisfaction of consumer needs and social connectivity. A survey of Swiss and Swedish consumers (N = 1522) was conducted to analyze drive ...

System Support for Efficient Replication in Distributed Systems

Dragos-Adrian Seredinschi

Current online applications, such as search engines, social networks, or file sharing services, execute across a distributed network of machines. They provide non-stop services to their users despite failures in the underlying network. To achieve such a hi ...

Signaling and Reciprocity : Robust Decentralized Information Flows in Social, Communication, and Computer Networks

Wojciech Galuba

Complex networks exist for a number of purposes. The neural, metabolic and food networks ensure our survival, while the social, economic, transportation and communication networks allow us to prosper. Independently of the purposes and particularities of th ...

Live Streaming with Gossip

Maxime Monod

Peer-to-peer (P2P) architectures have emerged as a popular paradigm to support the dynamic and scalable nature of distributed systems. This is particularly relevant today, given the tremendous increase in the intensity of information exchanged over the Int ...

PicShark: Mitigating Metadata Scarcity Through Large-Scale P2P Collaboration

Karl Aberer, Manfred Hauswirth, Philippe Cudré-Mauroux, Adriana Budura

With the commoditization of digital devices, personal information and media sharing is becoming a key application on the pervasive Web. In such a context, data annotation rather than data production is the main bottleneck. Metadata scarcity represents a ma ...

Extending Peer-to-Peer Networks for Approximate Search

Ion Constantinescu, Michael Ignaz Schumacher, Roman Schmidt, Alain Mowat

Peer-to-Peer (P2P) networks are used worldwide for many applications such as file sharing or news servers. There are many different implementations available, each with its pros and cons. In this paper, we propose a way to enable approximate queries in a P ...

Message Passing in Semantic Peer-to-Peer Overlay Networks

Karl Aberer, Philippe Cudré-Mauroux

Peer-to-Peer (P2P) systems rely on machine-to-machine ad-hoc communications to offer services to a community. Contrary to the classical client-server architecture, P2P systems consider all peers, i.e., all nodes participating in the network, as being equal ...

Peer Sharing Behaviour in the eDonkey Network, and Implications for the Design of Server-less File Sharing Systems

Anne-Marie Kermarrec, Sidath Handurukande

In this paper we present an empirical study of a workload gathered by crawling the eDonkey network - a dominant peer-to-peer file sharing system - for over 50 days. We first confirm the presence of some known features, in particular the prevalence of free- ...

Peer-to-Peer Applications Beyond File Sharing: Overlay Network Requirements and Solutions

In this paper we analyze the functional and non-functional requirements of peer-to-peer (P2P) systems that go beyond the needs of the well explored file-sharing P2P systems. Four basic subcategories are suggested to classify the non-functional requirements ...

SoS: self-organizing substrates

Anwitaman Datta

Large-scale networked systems often, both by design or chance exhibit self-organizing properties. Understanding self-organization using tools from cybernetics, particularly modeling them as Markov processes is a first step towards a formal framework which ...
