Mutual data sharing is provided in distributed file sharing environment. Information brokering systems (IBSs) are used to connect large-scale loosely federated data sources via a brokering overlay. Information brokers redirect the client queries to the requested data servers. Privacy preserving methods are used to protect the data location and data consumer. Brokers are trusted to adopt server-...

the establishment as well as the survival of mobile ad-hoc networks relies on the cooperation of nodes for performing network operations such as routing and packet forwarding. in these networks, misbehaving nodes can severely degrade network’s performance by not cooperating in networking operations. in this paper, we study the issue of node misbehavior in packet forwarding. to counter this type...

the ip lookup process is a key bottleneck in routing due to the increase in routing table size, increasing traıc and migration to ipv6 addresses. the ip address lookup involves computation of the longest prefix matching (lpm), which existing solutions such as bsd radix tries, scale poorly when traıc in the router increases or when employed for ipv6 address lookups. in this paper, we describe a ...

histone deacetylase inhibitors have gained a great deal of attention recently for the treatment of cancers and inflammatory diseases. so design of new inhibitors is of great importance in pharmaceutical industries and labs. creating pharmacophor models in order to design new molecules or search a library for finding lead compounds is of great interest. this approach reduces the overall cost ass...

routing in wireless sensor networks (wsns) is a very challenging task due to the large number of nodes, their mobility and lack of proper infrastructure. since the sensors are battery powered devices, energy efficiency is considered as one of the main factors in designing routing protocols in wsns. most of energy-aware routing protocols are mere energy savers that attempt to decrease the energy...

A major problem in information retrieval is the difficulty to define the information needs of user and on the other hand, when user offers your query there is a vast amount of information to retrieval. Different methods , therefore, have been suggested for query expansion which concerned with reconfiguring of query by increasing efficiency and improving the criterion accuracy in the information...

Searching content in mobile opportunistic networks is a difficult problem due to the dynamically changing topology and intermittent connections. Moreover, due to the lack of global view of the network, it is arduous to determine whether the best response is discovered or search should be spread to other nodes. A node that has received a search query has to take two decisions: (i) whether to con...
