Millions of players play Massively Multiplayer Online Games (MMOG) daily. Because the cost and limited scalability of client/server architecture of today’s MMOG; Peerto-Peer (P2P) architectures become very popular in MMOG recently, many researches are conducted in this field. This paper presents a survey of recent advancements in P2P game regarding with its state management, overlay management ...

Both CISC and RISC architectures continue to be widely used. RISC processors are present in most embedded devices, while x86 is the most popular architecture for desktops. Since modern processors have to address both power consumption and performance, it is important to compare these architectures to support future project decisions. Keywords—RISC; CISC; comparison

Wikis are becoming popular knowledge management tools. Analysing knowledge management requirements, we observe that wikis do not fully support structured search and knowledge reuse. We show how Semantic wikis address the requirements and present a general architecture. We introduce our SemperWiki prototype which offers advanced information access and knowledge reuse.

Despite the importance of spatial networks in real-life applications, most of the spatial database literature focuses on Euclidean spaces. In this paper we propose an architecture that integrates network and Euclidean information, capturing pragmatic constraints. Based on this architecture, we develop a Euclidean restriction and a network expansion framework that take advantage of location and ...

Publish/subscribe is becoming increasingly popular as communication paradigm for loosely-coupled message exchange. It is used as a building block in major new software architectures and technology domains such as Enterprise Service Bus, Enterprise Application Integration, Service-Oriented Architecture and Event-Driven Architecture. The growing adoption of these technologies leads to a strong ne...

As Internet is becoming popular to everyone recently, demands for higher-quality services such as VOD and home networking have been increasing. Especially, home networking system can interconnect and control home appliances which use different protocols via Internet. This means that a common protocol to communicate with each other and a new system architecture to implement the common protocol a...

Wireless networks have become increasingly popular for the past few years, especially IEEE 802.11 as the most widespread wireless technology. This article proposes a new architecture for broadband 802.11 networks to support distributed multimedia applications. After discussing the differences between multimedia and traditional applications, we show how the 802.11b mechanism ensuring enhanced ro...

Cloud computing is an increasingly popular platform for both industry and consumers. The cloud presents a number of unique security issues, such as a high level of distribution or system homogeneity, which require special consideration. In this paper we introduce a resilience architecture consisting of a collection of self-organising resilience managers distributed within the infrastructure of ...

Massively Multiplayer Online Games (MMOGs) gradually become one of the most popular internet applications. Traditional client-server architecture is widely used in MMOGs’ deployment, but its scalability and maintenance are limited mostly by servers. Peer-to-Peer (P2P) architecture, which attempts to make use of computer resources from the computers in the network, is considered to be a candidat...
