A schema-based P2P network to enable publish-subscribe for multimedia content in open hypermedia systems
Open Hypermedia Systems (OHS) aim to provide efficient dissemination, adaptation and integration of hyperlinked multimedia resources. Content available in Peer-to-Peer (P2P) networks could add significant value to OHS provided that challenges for efficient discovery and prompt delivery of rich and up-to-date content are successfully addressed. This paper proposes an architecture that enables the operation of OHS over a P2P overlay network of OHS servers based on semantic annotation of (a) peer OHS servers and of (b) multimedia resources that can be obtained through the link services of the OHS. The architecture provides efficient resource discovery. Semantic query-based subscriptions over this P2P network can enable access to up-to-date content, while caching at certain peers enables prompt delivery of multimedia content. Advanced query resolution techniques are employed to match different parts of subscription queries (subqueries). These subscriptions can be shared among different interested peers, thus increasing the efficiency of multimedia content dissemination
An Efficient Architecture for Information Retrieval in P2P Context Using Hypergraph
Peer-to-peer (P2P) Data-sharing systems now generate a significant portion of
Internet traffic. P2P systems have emerged as an accepted way to share enormous
volumes of data. Needs for widely distributed information systems supporting
virtual organizations have given rise to a new category of P2P systems called
schema-based. In such systems each peer is a database management system in
itself, ex-posing its own schema. In such a setting, the main objective is the
efficient search across peer databases by processing each incoming query
without overly consuming bandwidth. The usability of these systems depends on
successful techniques to find and retrieve data; however, efficient and
effective routing of content-based queries is an emerging problem in P2P
networks. This work was attended as an attempt to motivate the use of mining
algorithms in the P2P context may improve the significantly the efficiency of
such methods. Our proposed method based respectively on combination of
clustering with hypergraphs. We use ECCLAT to build approximate clustering and
discovering meaningful clusters with slight overlapping. We use an algorithm
MTMINER to extract all minimal transversals of a hypergraph (clusters) for
query routing. The set of clusters improves the robustness in queries routing
mechanism and scalability in P2P Network. We compare the performance of our
method with the baseline one considering the queries routing problem. Our
experimental results prove that our proposed methods generate impressive levels
of performance and scalability with with respect to important criteria such as
response time, precision and recall.Comment: 2o pages, 8 figure
An integrated ranking algorithm for efficient information computing in social networks
Social networks have ensured the expanding disproportion between the face of
WWW stored traditionally in search engine repositories and the actual ever
changing face of Web. Exponential growth of web users and the ease with which
they can upload contents on web highlights the need of content controls on
material published on the web. As definition of search is changing,
socially-enhanced interactive search methodologies are the need of the hour.
Ranking is pivotal for efficient web search as the search performance mainly
depends upon the ranking results. In this paper new integrated ranking model
based on fused rank of web object based on popularity factor earned over only
valid interlinks from multiple social forums is proposed. This model identifies
relationships between web objects in separate social networks based on the
object inheritance graph. Experimental study indicates the effectiveness of
proposed Fusion based ranking algorithm in terms of better search results.Comment: 14 pages, International Journal on Web Service Computing (IJWSC),

Exploring heterogeneity of unreliable machines for p2p backup
P2P architecture is a viable option for enterprise backup. In contrast to
dedicated backup servers, nowadays a standard solution, making backups directly
on organization's workstations should be cheaper (as existing hardware is
used), more efficient (as there is no single bottleneck server) and more
reliable (as the machines are geographically dispersed).
We present the architecture of a p2p backup system that uses pairwise
replication contracts between a data owner and a replicator. In contrast to
standard p2p storage systems using directly a DHT, the contracts allow our
system to optimize replicas' placement depending on a specific optimization
strategy, and so to take advantage of the heterogeneity of the machines and the
network. Such optimization is particularly appealing in the context of backup:
replicas can be geographically dispersed, the load sent over the network can be
minimized, or the optimization goal can be to minimize the backup/restore time.
However, managing the contracts, keeping them consistent and adjusting them in
response to dynamically changing environment is challenging.
We built a scientific prototype and ran the experiments on 150 workstations
in the university's computer laboratories and, separately, on 50 PlanetLab
nodes. We found out that the main factor affecting the quality of the system is
the availability of the machines. Yet, our main conclusion is that it is
possible to build an efficient and reliable backup system on highly unreliable
machines (our computers had just 13% average availability)
