Given some of the recent advances in Distributed Hash Table (DHT) based Peer-To-Peer (P2P) systems we ask the following questions: Are there applications where unstructured querie...
Peer-to-peer grids aim to build computational grids encompassing thousands of sites. To achieve this scale, such systems cannot rely on trust or off-line negotiations among partic...
