We develop an analytical model of information dissemination for a gossiping protocol that combines both pull and push approaches. With this model we analyse how fast an item is replicated through a network, and how fast the item spreads in…

Randomized gossip is one of the most popular way of disseminating information in large scale networks. This method is appreciated for its simplicity, robustness, and efficiency. In the "push" protocol, every informed node selects, at every…

Reputation aggregation in peer to peer networks is generally a very time and resource consuming process. Moreover, most of the methods consider that a node will have same reputation with all the nodes in the network, which is not true. This…
