Due to the transient nature of peers, any Peer-to-Peer network is in peril to falling apart if peers do not receive routing table updates periodically. To this end, maintenance, which affects every peer, ensures connectedness and sustained…

We introduce a heterogeneous connection model for network formation to capture the effect of cost heterogeneity on the structure of efficient networks. In the proposed model, connection costs are assumed to be separable, which means the…

We consider a cost sharing problem to connect all nodes in a weighted undirected graph, where the weight of each edge represents the cost to use the edge for the connectivity and the cost has to be shared among all connected nodes. There is…

This paper analyzes the pricing of transit traffic in wireless peer-to-peer networks using the concepts of direct and indirect network externalities. We first establish that without any pricing mechanism, congestion externalities overwhelm…

Distributed systems with different levels of dependence to central services have been designed and used during recent years. Pure peer-to-peer systems among distributed systems have no dependence on a central resource. DHT is one of the…

Peer to peer (P2P) networks are an overlay on IP network of the internet and they can shape the future of computing by their involvement in distributed systems with the increased of use of low priced personal computers to form big clusters…

We consider the problem of designing an overlay network and routing mechanism that permits finding resources efficiently in a peer-to-peer system. We argue that many existing approaches to this problem can be modeled as the construction of…

While peer-to-peer energy trading has the potential to harness the capabilities of small-scale energy resources, a peer-matching process often overlooks power grid conditions, yielding increased losses, line congestion, and voltage…

Several protocol efficiency metrics (e.g., scalability, search success rate, routing reachability and stability) depend on the capability of preserving structure even over the churn caused by the ad-hoc nodes joining or leaving the network.…

This paper presents a statistical analysis of the structure of Peer-to-Peer (P2P) social networks that captures social associations of distributed peers in resource sharing. Peer social networks appear to be mainly composed of pure resource…

We study the interaction between network effects and external incentives on file sharing behavior in Peer-to-Peer (P2P) networks. Many current or envisioned P2P networks reward individuals for sharing files, via financial incentives or…

This paper presents an analytical framework to model fault-tolerance in unstructured peer-to-peer overlays, represented as complex networks. We define a distributed protocol peers execute for managing the overlay and reacting to node…

Federated learning protects users' data privacy through sharing users' local model parameters (instead of raw data) with a server. However, when massive users train a large machine learning model through federated learning, the dynamically…

The increasing demand for computational power in big data and machine learning has driven the development of distributed training methodologies. Among these, peer-to-peer (P2P) networks provide advantages such as enhanced scalability and…

Peer to peer networks will become an increasingly important distribution channel for consumer information goods and may play a role in the distribution of information within corporations. Our research analyzes optimal membership rules for…

The deployment of distributed energy resources, combined with a more proactive demand side, is inducing a new paradigm in power system operation and electricity markets. Within a consumer-centric market framework, peer-to-peer approaches…

In this paper, we analyse how a peer-to-peer sharing platform should price its service (when imagined as an excludable public good) to maximize profit, when each user's participation adds value to the platform service by creating a positive…

We consider a cost sharing problem on a weighted undirected graph, where all the nodes want to connect to a special node called source, and they need to share the total cost (weights) of the used edges. Each node except for the source has a…

This paper considers peer-to-peer scheduling for a network with multiple wireless devices. A subset of the devices are mobile users that desire specific files. Each user may already have certain popular files in its cache. The remaining…

Ad hoc network is a collection of different types of nodes, which are connected in heterogeneous or homogeneous manner. It is also known as self-organizing-wireless network. The dynamic nature of ad hoc networks make them more attractive,…
