We consider the problem of peer selection for multimedia trans- mission over a peer-to-peer (P2P) network to find a strategy model for peer selection for each lost packet. Our problem consists of two parts one related to the P2P network that is a peer sele ...

On the Impact of Bounded Rationality in Peer-to-Peer Networks

Hyung Gon Park

In this letter, we consider peer-to-peer (P2P) networks, where multiple peers are interested in sharing their content. In the considered P2P system, autonomous and self-interested peers use a Markov Decision Process (MDP) framework to determine their uploa ...

Slicing Distributed Systems

Anne-Marie Kermarrec, Vincent Gramoli

Peer-to-peer (P2P) architectures are popular for tasks such as collaborative download, VoIP telephony, and backup. To maximize performance in the face of widely variable storage capacities and bandwidths, such systems typically need to shift work from poor ...

Sharing of probabilistically correlated data in peer-to-peer networks

Roman Schmidt

The impact of Peer-to-Peer (P2P) networks on the Internet landscape is undisputed. It has led to a series of new applications, e.g., as part of the so-called Web 2.0. The shift from the classical client-server based paradigm of the Internet, with a clear d ...

Conceptual Synopses of Semantics in Social Networks Sharing Structured Data

We are interested in the problem of data sharing in overlay networks that have a social structure, i.e. participants are linked and exchange data with others w.r.t. the similarity of their data semantics. In this paper we propose a methodology to produce c ...

Graphical display for annual climate-based daylight simulation

Marilyne Andersen, Magali Bodart

Due to daylight variability, a design cannot be thoroughly assessed using single-moment simulations, which is why we need dynamic performance metrics like Daylight Autonomy and Useful Daylight Illuminance. Going one step further, the annual variation in pe ...

The AMGA Metadata Service

Nuno Filipe de Sousa Santos

We present the AMGA metadata catalogue, which was developed as part of the EGEE (enabling Grids for EsciencE) project's gLite Grid middleware. AMGA provides access to metadata for files stored on the Grid, as well as a simplified general access to relation ...

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 ...

PicShark: Mitigating Metadata Scarcity Through Large-Scale P2P Collaboration

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

Abstract 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 repres ...

AlvisP2P: Scalable Peer-to-Peer Text Retrieval in a Structured P2P Network

Karl Aberer, Martin Rajman, Vinh Toan Luu, Ivana Podnar, Fabius Klemm, Gleb Skobeltsyn

In this paper we present the AlvisP2P IR engine, which enables efficient retrieval with multi-keyword queries from a global document collection available in a P2P network. In such a network, each peer publishes its local index and invests a part of its loc ...
