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 ...
In this thesis, we study methods to detect, localize and overcome performance problems experienced by end-users in communication networks. These problems are extremely difficult to solve when the only available information are end-to-end data. We first con ...
This thesis describes our research results in the context of peer-to-peer information retrieval (P2P-IR). One goal in P2P-IR is to build a search engine for the World Wide Web (WWW) that runs on up to hundreds of thousands or even millions computers distri ...
We consider the problem of rate-distortion (RD) optimized media streaming in unstructured peer-to-peer (P2P) overlay networks. We formulate the aforementioned problem as a distributed rate allocation problem. To solve the problem for all the participating ...
Advanced applications for Distributed Hash Tables (DHTs), such as Peer-to-Peer Information Retrieval, require a DHT to quickly and efficiently process a large number (in the order of millions) of requests. In this paper we study mechanisms to optimize the ...
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 ...
A peer-to-peer overlay network is a logical network, built on top of a physical network. In contrast to classical client-server distributed architectures, peer-to-peer overlay networks allow location of resources without centralized control. Existing overl ...
Structured P2P systems based on distributed hash tables are a popular choice for building large-scaled data management systems. Generally, they only support exact match queries, but data heterogeneities often demand for more complex query types, particular ...
We describe a query-driven indexing framework for scalable text retrieval over structured P2P networks. To cope with the bandwidth consumption problem that has been identified as the major obstacle for full-text retrieval in P2P networks, we truncate posti ...
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 ...
