DHT-based peer-to-peer (P2P) overlays significantly reduce the overlay traffic that is needed to locate a random object on the overlay network. However, DHT-based overlays are often largely oblivious to the underlying physical network and only assign …
A vast amount of applications and mechanisms recently developed for mobile ad-hoc networks could greatly benefit from the utilization of network status information. That includes, but is not limited to the detection of network partitioning. Network …
Recently, a significant amount of attention has been directed toward Mobile Multiplayer Games. Current games are still limited to a few players and often rely on a server based structure, but it seems that future mobile games will be distributed, …
DHTs can locate objects in a peer-to-peer network within an efficient amount of overlay hops. Since an overlay hop is likely to consist of multiple physical hops, the ratio between the number of physical hops induced by the overlay routing process …
Lately, peer-to-peer overlay networks and their ability to reflect the underlying network topology have been a focus in research. The main objective has been to reduce routing path lengths, stretched by the overlay routing process. In most solutions …
