Traditional end-to-end congestion control mechanisms assume data transferring happens between each pair user. In contrast, in a P2P network, many peers may locally keep a copy of a specific data object. If the path between a pair of peers…
Virtual networks are an innovative abstraction that extends cloud computing concepts to the network: by supporting bandwidth reservations between compute nodes (e.g., virtual machines), virtual networks can provide a predictable performance…
Many cluster similarity indices are used to evaluate clustering algorithms, and choosing the best one for a particular task remains an open problem. We demonstrate that this problem is crucial: there are many disagreements among the…
This paper presents a review of peer-to-peer network security. Popular for sharing of multimedia files, these networks carry risks and vulnerabilities relating to data integrity, spyware, adware, and unwanted files. Further attacks include…
Index structures are important for efficient data access, which have been widely used to improve the performance in many in-memory systems. Due to high in-memory overheads, traditional index structures become difficult to process the…
The representation of binary relations has been intensively studied and many different theoretical and practical representations have been proposed to answer the usual queries in multiple domains. However, ternary relations have not…
We present a distributed data structure, which we call the rainbow skip graph. To our knowledge, this is the first peer-to-peer data structure that simultaneously achieves high fault tolerance, constant-sized nodes, and fast update and…
Network embedding is a fervid topic in current networks science and observes that most real complex systems can be embedded in hidden metrics space and emerge as the geometrical property, where the geometric distance between nodes…
Sender anonymity in network communication is an important problem, widely addressed in the literature. Mixnets, combined with onion routing, represent certainly the most concrete and effective approach achieving the above goal. In general,…
In facing with the explosive Internet traffic growth, optical transport networks based on WDM technologies forming the core part of Internet infrastructure carrying multi-Tb/s has to be re-considered from both designing, planning, operation…
Multinets are certain configurations of lines and points with multiplicities in the complex projective plane $\mathbb{P}^2$. They appear in the study of resonance and characteristic varieties of complex hyperplane arrangement complements…
The vision of the Internet of Thing is becoming a reality and novel communications technologies such as the upcoming 5G network architecture are designed to support its full deployment. In this scenario, we discuss the benefits that a…
This paper proposes a fully decentralized peer-to-peer overlay structure GeoP2P, to facilitate geographic location based search and retrieval of information. Certain limitations of centralized geographic indexes favor peer-to-peer…
In Peer-to-Peer context, a challenging problem is how to find the appropriate peer to deal with a given query without overly consuming bandwidth? Different methods proposed routing strategies of queries taking into account the P2P network…
Despite recent progress in our understanding of complex dynamic networks, it remains challenging to devisesufficiently accurate models to observe, control or predict the state of real systems in biology, economics or other fields. A largely…
In this paper we present several novel efficient techniques and multidimensional data structures which can improve the decision making process in many domains. We consider online range aggregation, range selection and range weighted median…
With the development of mobile technology, mobile virtual worlds have attracted massive users. To improve scalability, a peer-to-peer virtual world provides the solution to accommodate more users without increasing hardware investment. In…
Peer-to-peer (P2P) networks have mostly focused on task oriented networking, where networks are constructed for single applications, i.e. file-sharing, DNS caching, etc. In this work, we introduce IPOP, a system for creating virtual IP…
As time progresses, the need for more secure applications grows exponentially. The different types of sensitive information that is being transferred virtually has sparked a rise in systems that leverage blockchain. Different sectors are…
Bipartite networks provide a major insight into the organisation of many real-world systems. One of the most relevant issues encountered when modelling a bipartite network is that of facing the information shortage concerning intra-layer…
