This paper aims to provide insight into stability of collaboration choices in P2P networks. We study networks where exchanges between nodes are driven by the desire to receive the best service available. This is the case for most existing…

Borrowing from concepts in expander graphs, we study the expansion properties of real-world, complex networks (e.g. social networks, unstructured peer-to-peer or P2P networks) and the extent to which these properties can be exploited to…

The existence of node failures is inevitable in distributed systems, thus many P2P broadcasting networks adopt highly robust Flooding-based broadcast algorithms. High redundancy inevitably leads to high network resource consumption, and it…

Sensor network virtualization is a promising paradigm to move away from highlycustomized, application-specific wireless sensor networks deployment by opening up to the possibility of dynamically assigning general purpose physical resources…

Peer-to-Peer (P2P) technology has been regarded as a promising way to help Content Providers (CPs) cost-effectively distribute content. However, under the traditional Internet pricing mechanism, the fact that most P2P traffic flows among…

Peer-to-peer (P2P) botnets have become one of the major threats in network security for serving as the fundamental infrastructure for various cyber-crimes. More challenges are involved in the problem of detecting P2P botnets, despite a few…

Network virtualization is a way to simultaneously run multiple heterogeneous architectures on a shared substrate. The main issue in the virtualization of networks is the problem of mapping virtual networks to the substrate network. How to…

Scalability and efficient global search in unstructured peer-to-peer overlays have been extensively studied in the literature. The global search comes at the expense of local interactions between peers. Most of the unstructured peer-to-peer…

During the last decade there has been a huge interest in Grid technologies, and numerous Grid projects have been initiated with various visions of the Grid. While all these visions have the same goal of resource sharing, they differ in the…

Redistribution mechanisms have been proposed for more efficient resource allocation but not for profit. We consider redistribution mechanism design in a setting where participants are connected and the resource owner is only connected to…

The use of under-utilized Internet resources is widely recognized as a viable form of high performance computing. Sustained processing power of roughly 40T FLOPS using 4 million volunteered Internet hosts has been reported for…

A peer-to-peer application architecture is proposed that has the potential to eliminate the back-end servers for hosting services on the Internet. The proposed application architecture has been modeled as a distributed system for delivering…

Efficient resource allocation and scheduling algorithms are essential for various distributed applications, ranging from wireless networks and cloud computing platforms to autonomous multi-agent systems and swarm robotic networks. However,…

Peer grading is an educational system in which students assess each other's work. It is commonly applied under Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) and offline classroom settings. With this system, instructors receive a reduced grading…

This paper studies the problem of load-balancing the demand for content in a peer-to-peer network across heterogeneous peer nodes that hold replicas of the content. Previous decentralized load balancing techniques in distributed systems…

In smart energy communities, prosumers who both generate and consume energy play a crucial role in shaping energy management strategies. These communities use advanced platforms that enable prosumers to actively engage in the local…

A community is sub-network inside P2P networks that partition the network into groups of similar peers to improve performance by reducing network traffic and high search query success rate. Large communities are common in online social…

P2P overlays provide a framework for building distributed applications consisting of few to many resources with features including self-configuration, scalability, and resilience to node failures. Such systems have been successfully adopted…

Given a large number of online services on the Internet, from time to time, people are still struggling to find out the services that they need. On the other hand, when there are considerable research and development on service discovery…

The widespread emergence of the Internet as a platform for electronic data distribution and the advent of structured information have revolutionized our ability to deliver information to any corner of the world. Although Service Oriented…
