On exploiting social relationship and personal background for content discovery in P2P networks

On P2p Networks and P2p-based Content Discovery on the Internet

Exploiting Social Networks Dynamics for P2P Resource Organisation

In this paper we present a formal description of PROSA , a P2P resource management system heavily inspired by social networks. Social networks have been deeply studied in the last two decades in order to understand how communities of people arise and grow. It is a widely known result that networks of social relationships usually evolves to small–worlds, i.e. networks where nodes are strongly co...

P2P Networks for Content Sharing

Peer-to-peer (P2P) technologies have been widely used for content sharing, popularly called “file-swapping” networks. This chapter gives a broad overview of content sharing P2P technologies. It starts with the fundamental concept of P2P computing followed by the analysis of network topologies used in peer-to-peer systems. Next, three milestone peer-to-peer technologies: Napster, Gnutella, and F...

Exploiting Background Knowledge in Automated Discovery

Prior work in automated scientific discovery has been successful in finding patterns in data, given that a reasonably small set of mostly relevant features is specified. The work described in this paper places data in the context of large bodies of background knowledge. Specifically, data items are connected to multiple databases of background knowledge represented as inheritance networks. The ...

the impact of mobility prediction on the performance of p2p content discovery protocols over mobile ad-hoc networks

content discovery is one of the fundamental issues that determines the architecture and performance of content distribution networks based on peer-to-peer (p2p) networks. to administrate the costs and discoveries, peers of a p2p network communicate with each other by one or more overlay layers. the condition of node’s relations in overlay networks, have a great impact in efficiency of networks....
