Distributed systems have been widely deployed and used in different fields. The Internet itself with all the challenges it brings is one of the successful distributed systems. There have been a lot of research in the ...

In this paper we present ECDP, an efficient incentive based prioritized content distribution protocol. In ECDP content which originates from some servers or peers is first distributed to some users (peers). As soon as ...

The transmission control protocol (TCP) is the major trans- port protocol in the Internet. TCP and its variants have the drawback of not accurately knowing rate share of flows at bottleneck links. Some protocols proposed ...

In this short paper we make a simple extension of our previous work on efficient distributed file system (EDFS) for cloud computing to make it more energy efficient. Our GreenEDFS scheme uses the EDFS mechanism to ...

This is just a short abstract describing a simple extension of our previous work on efficient distributed file system (EDFS) for cloud computing. The extension, GreenEDFS, aims at making EDFS more energy efficient. The ...

With the fast growth of (online) content and the need for high quality content services, cloud data centers are increas- ingly becoming the preferred places to store data and re- trieve it from. With a highly variable ...

Denial of Service (DoS) and Distributed DoS (DDoS) attacks have proven to be increasing threats to our digital world. There are many approaches for trying to deal with these threats. With significant overhead and computational ...

In this paper we discuss a preliminary material describing the design of an efficient large scale distributed file system for data centre networks (cloud computing).

With the fast growth of (online) content and the need for high quality content services, cloud data centers are increasingly becoming the preferred places to store data and retrieve it from. With a highly variable network ...

Major distributed systems such as the Internet, datacenter and hybrid P2P networks share a common known challenge of finding an optimal path to transfer content from a source to a destination and the optimal rate at which ...
