—This paper presents a theoretic framework of optimal resource allocation and admission control for peer-topeer networks. Peer’s behavioral rankings are incorporated into the r...
We demonstrate that symmetric-key cryptography can be used for both read and write access control. One-time write access can be granted by handing over an encryption key, and our ...
We present an application of a multi-agent cooperative search approach to the problem of optimizing gas pipeline operations, i.e. finding control parameters for a gas transmission...
Social insect societies and more specifically ant colonies, are distributed systems that, in spite of the simplicity of their individuals, present a highly structured social organi...
We consider Cooperative Intrusion Detection System (CIDS) which is a distributed AIS-based (Artificial Immune System) IDS where nodes collaborate over a peer-to-peer overlay netwo...
