Complex systems are present everywhere in our environment: internet, electricity distribution networks, transport networks. This systems have as characteristics: a...

Some of the techniques for maintaining a peer-to-peer tree topology were initially inspired by solutions to several algorithmic tasks involoving tree graphs (some examples can...

We analyze a peer-assisted Video-on-Demand system in which users contribute their upload bandwidth to the redistribution of a video that they are downloading or that...

The substantial increase in the amount of information over the Internet has contributed to an extraordinary demand for persistent data storage. Centralized storage...

Some of the techniques for constructing and maintaining a peer-assisted content delivery architecture were initially inspired by solutions to several algorithmic tasks...

Collaborative editors allow different users to work together on a common task. Such tasks range from using a shared calendar to realizing software programmed by users...

Internet has led to a fundamental increase of information that is avail- able to its users over the latest years. The users want to express their needs by simple...

This report discusses how considering spatial and temporal dimensions at the modelling stage may have an influence on the outcome of the study in collective phenomena....

Peer-to-peer overlays allow distributed applications to work in a wide-area, scalable, and fault-tolerant manner. However, most structured and unstructured overlays...

As the size of distributed systems keeps growing, the peer to peer communication paradigm has been identified as the key to scalability. Peer to peer overlay networks...

In this paper, we address the problem of constructing scalable content-based publish/subscribe systems. Publish/subscribe systems are asynchronous event-notification...

As the size of today's grid computing platforms increases, the need for self-organization and dynamic reconfiguration becomes more and more important. In this context,...

In this paper we propose a stochastic fluid model to analyze the performance of Squirrel: a P2P cooperative Web cache. This work provides a scalable and insightful...

We consider the problem of multicasting a stream of packets in a large scale peer-to-peer environment. In that context, we stress three features: forwarding load...

The growth of peer-to-peer applications on the Internet motivates interest in general purpose overlay networks. The construction of overlays connecting a large...

Grid computing has recently emerged as a response to the growing demand for resources (processing power, storage, etc.) exhibited by scientific applications. However,...

The arrival of the P2P model has opened many new avenues for research within the field of distributed computing. This is mainly due to important practical features...

On the basis of a reference model for ADSL traffic on an IP backbone link, established in an earlier study, we show in this paper that it is possible to infer the...
