BLASTn is a ubiquitous tool used for large scale DNA analysis. Detailed profiling tests reveal that the most computationally intensive sections of the BLASTn algorithm are the sc...
—P2P storage systems use replication to provide a certain level of availability. While the system must generate new replicas to replace replicas lost to permanent failures, it ca...
In P2P file sharing systems, free-riders who use others’ resources without sharing their own cause system-wide performance degradation. Existing techniques to counter freerider...
In recent years several works have aimed at exploiting color information in order to improve the bag-ofwords based image representation. There are two stages in which color inform...

In this paper, we propose a simple and fully distributed mechanism for constructing and maintaining the overlay topology in mesh-based P2P-TV systems. Our algorithm optimizes the ...
