Exploiting locality for scalable information retrieval in peer-to-peer networks
(2005)An important problem in unstructured peer-to-peer (P2P) networks is the efficient content-based retrieval of documents shared by other peers. However, existing searching mechanisms are not scaling well because they are ...

A graph-theoretic network security game
(2005)Consider a network vulnerable to viral infection. The system security software can guarantee safety only to a limited part of the network. We model this practical network scenario as a non-cooperative multi-player game on ...

HelperCoreDB: Exploiting multicore technology to improve database performance
(2008)Due to limitations in the traditional microprocessor design, such as high complexity and power, all current commercial high-end processors contain multiple cores on the same chip (multicore). This trend is expected to ...

How many attackers can selfish defenders catch?
(2008)In a distributed system with attacks and defenses, an economic investment in defense mechanisms aims at increasing the degree of system protection against the attacks. We study such investments in the selfish setting, where ...
