Agent Protocols for Peer-to-peer Architectures
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper we present a technique which enables agents to participate in peer-to-peer (P2P) systems, such as file-sharing networks. Our technique is founded on the definition of lightweight protocols which specify the interactions required by the agent for a specific P2P network. The protocols that we define are executable specifications and can be directly implemented and independently verified. We present a definition of our MAP language for expressing protocols, and show how it can be used to enable participation in a simple P2P file-sharing system.

Peer Pressure in Smoking and its Impact on Social Welfare; A Study Using Agent-based Modeling and Simulation
Many people die each year due to smoking. Social pressures, such as peer pressure, which are manifested in one's interactions with his/her peers, are from very effective factors in people's tendency to smoke. In this research, it was attempted to study and analyze peer pressure in smoking and its impact on some of the welfare indicators including mortality number due to starvation, wealth avera...

متن کاملPeer - to - Peer Video Streaming
The Internet as a video distribution medium has seen a tremendous growth in recent years. Currently, the transmission of major live events and TV channels over the Internet can easily reach hundreds or millions of users trying to receive the same content using very distinct receiver terminals, placing both scalability and heterogeneity challenges to content and network providers. In private and...

Several architectures, protocols, languages, and candidate standards, have been proposed to let the “semantic web” idea take off. In particular, searching for information requires cooperation of the information providers and seekers. Past experience and history show that a successful architecture must support ease of adoption and deployment by a wide and heterogeneous population, a flexible pol...
متن کاملCooperation strategies for agent-based P2P systems
We are interested in peer-to-peer (P2P) computing, where a P2P application consists of a (wireless) network of nodes (peers), and assumes full peer autonomy, no global control, and intermittent connectivity. P2P computing has many advantages over classical client-server and web-based distributed architectures. However, the P2P computing model also has a number of limitations in the mechanisms i...
