This paper presents a distributed resource selection mechanism for diverse cloud-edge environments, enabling dynamic and context-aware allocation of resources to meet the demands of complex distributed applications. By distributing the…

Peer-to-peer (P2P) Data-sharing systems now generate a significant portion of internet traffic. P2P systems have emerged as a popular way to share huge volumes of data. Requirements for widely distributed information systems supporting…

We are motivated by the problem of designing a simple distributed algorithm for Peer-to-Peer streaming applications that can achieve high throughput and low delay, while allowing the neighbor set maintained by each peer to be small. While…

In this paper we propose and evaluate an innovative algorithm that enables the creation of Peer-to-Peer network overlays characterized by emergent multi-hubs. This approach generates overlays that balance between the randomness of a graph…

Internet video traffic has been been rapidly increasing and is further expected to increase with the emerging 5G applications such as higher definition videos, IoT and augmented/virtual reality applications. As end-users consume video in…

Peer-to-Peer Live streaming and Video on Demand is the most popular media applications over the Internet in recent years. These systems reduce the load on the server and provide a scalable content distribution. A new paradigm of P2P network…

We study the problem of optimizing the cost of content delivery in a cooperative network of caches at end-nodes. The caches could be, for example, within the computers of users downloading videos from websites (such as Netflix, Blockbuster…

We propose a new model for peer-to-peer networking which takes the network bottlenecks into account beyond the access. This model can cope with key features of P2P networking like degree or locality constraints together with the fact that…

In this paper, we attempt to revisit the problem of multi-party conferencing from a practical perspective, and to rethink the design space involved in this problem. We believe that an emphasis on low end-to-end delays between any two…

During the last decade, we witnessed a rapid growth in deployment of pull-based P2P streaming applications. In these applications, each node selects some other nodes as its neighbors and requests streaming data from them. This scheme allows…

Peer-to-peer (P2P) overlay networks such as BitTorrent and Avalanche are increasingly used for disseminating potentially large files from a server to many end users via the Internet. The key idea is to divide the file into many…

With files proactively stored at base stations (BSs), mobile edge caching enables direct content delivery without remote file fetching, which can reduce the end-to-end delay while relieving backhaul pressure. To effectively utilize the…

This paper presents ZePoP, a leader election protocol for distributed systems, optimizing a delay-based closeness centrality. We design the protocol specifically for the Peer to Peer(P2P) applications, where the leader peer (node) is…

Distributed applications require novel solutions to tackle problems that arise due to the scarcity of resources such as bandwidth, memory and processing power. One of these challenges is seen in distributed data management. The challenge is…

Streaming high quality videos consumes significantly large amount of network resources. In this context request to service delay, network traffic, congestion and server overloading are the main parameters to be considered in video streaming…

We introduce a decentralized replication strategy for peer-to-peer file exchange based on exhaustive exploration of the neighborhood of any node in the network. The replication scheme lets the replicas evenly populate the network mesh,…

Streaming video is becoming the predominant type of traffic over the Internet with reports forecasting the video content to account for 80% of all traffic by 2019. With significant investment on Internet backbone, the main bottleneck…

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…

Caching at the base stations brings the contents closer to the users, reduces the traffic through the backhaul links, and reduces the delay experienced by the cellular users. The cellular network operator may charge the content providers…

In this paper, we study the resource allocation problem for a cooperative device-to-device (D2D)-enabled wireless caching network, where each user randomly caches popular contents to its memory and shares the contents with nearby users…
