Monitoring and management operations that query nodes based on their availability can be extremely useful in a variety of largescale distributed systems containing hundreds to thou...
Peer-to-peer (P2P) storage systems rely on data redundancy to obtain high levels of data availability. Among the existing data redundancy schemes, erasure coding is a widely adopte...
Redundancy is the basic technique to provide reliability in storage systems consisting of multiple components. A redundancy scheme defines how the redundant data are produced and...
Abstract—The success of swarming content delivery has motivated a new approach to live Peer-to-Peer (P2P) streaming that we call mesh-based streaming. In this approach, participa...
In recent years, large scale distributed virtual environments (DVEs) have become a major trend in distributed applications, mainly due to the enormous popularity of multiplayer onl...
