A path-traceable query routing mechanism for search in unstructured peer-to-peer networks

Unstructured Peer-to-Peer (P2P) networks have become a very popular architecture for content distribution in large-scale and dynamic environments. Searching for content in unstructured P2P networks is a challenging task because the distribution of objects has no association with the organization of peers. Proposed methods in recent years either depend too much on objects replication rate or suffer from a sharp decline in performance when objects stored in peers change rapidly, although their performance is better than flooding or random walk algorithms to some extent. In this paper, we propose a novel query routing mechanism for improving query performance in unstructured P2P networks. We design a data structure called traceable gain matrix (TGM) that records every query's gain at each peer along the query hit path, and allows for optimizing query routing decision effectively. Experimental results show that our query routing mechanism achieves relatively high query hit rate with low bandwidth consumption in different types of network topologies under static and dynamic network conditions.     

A Query Routing Approach Based on Users’ Satisfaction for Resource Discovery in Service-Oriented Networks

Service oriented networks are distributed computing infrastructures that provide widely distributed resources. These networks are dynamic and their size and complexity continue to increase and allow to users a ubiquitous access to available resources and services. Therefore, efficient query routing approaches in large and highly distributed service oriented networks are required and need to be adaptive in order to cope with a dynamically changing environment. In this paper, a query routing approach based on mobile agents and random walks with a reinforcement learning technique is presented. By enhancing random walks with a reinforcement learning mechanism centered on users’ satisfaction, this approach allows dynamic and self-adaptive location of required resources. Peers incorporate knowledge from past and present queries which will be used during next searches by mobile agents to select their next hops. This approach is analyzed through two query routing techniques using the network simulator ns2.     

SSON：一种基于结构化P2P网络路由的语义覆盖网络结构

Combining search and trust models in unstructured peer-to-peer networks

Effectiveness of Peer-to-Peer (P2P) systems highly depends on efficiency and scalability of their search algorithms. Moreover, managing trust is a key issue for wide acceptance of P2P computing. Surprisingly, the majority of the available trust systems ignore the underlying search algorithm and assume it is preexisting. We claim that combining search and trust systems yields significant performance gains in terms of network traffic and query success rate. In this paper, we propose a robust and efficient trust based search framework for unstructured P2P networks. Our framework maintains limited size routing indexes combining search and trust data to guide queries to most reputable nodes. By dynamically selecting reputable nodes as score managers, our scheme tracks the reputation of participating peers. In an alternative approach, we aggregate partial reputation values obtained from reverse query paths to introduce a low overhead method for estimating reputation scores of peers. Through P2P network simulation experiments, we find significant performance gains in using our framework.     

非结构化P2P网络中基于节点的MQR算法设计与实现

在非结构化P2P搜索中,由于缺少全局性的管理机制,网络节点无法获得整个网络的拓扑结构及目标数据的定位信息,因此查询消息的路由过程具有较高的随机性,不仅查询性能低,而且宽带消耗大。为在有效控制网络冗余消息规模的同时提高数据的搜索范围,在分析现有2类典型非结构化P2P路由算法的基础上,提出一种基于节点的MQR算法。利用网络节点的状态信息及搜索过程中查询消息的TTL值状态信息,从数据的搜索范围与网络使用情况2个方面来提高非结构化P2P网络搜索性能。仿真实验结果表明,与传统的P2P路由算法APS和Random Walk相比,该算法在搜索准确率、网络利用率及召回率方面有更好的表现。

A Novel Framework and the Application Mechanism with Cooperation of Control and Management in Multi-domain WSON

Multi-layer and multi-domain optical networks have drawn much attention in current research, and the wavelength switched optical network (WSON) is viewed as one of the best solutions in optical networks. In this paper, a novel Cooperative Control and Management Framework (CCMF) in multi-domain WSON is proposed to support the arising intelligent applications and optimize resource utilization with more scalability and robustness. In CCMF, we focus on the mechanism with the consideration of requirements of intelligent applications with complex flows, performance guarantees and traffic engineering in a traditional optical network. Thus, a combined provisioning approach, synergetic between the control plane (CP) and the management plane (MP), is presented with the policy based management system, in which a mobile agent is introduced to support the communication between MP and CP. Furthermore, one application, a novel multi-domain impairment aware routing and wavelength assignment (MIA-RWA) algorithm at the Bit Error Rate level, based on the proposed CCMF, is presented. It is proposed to improve the routing performance in multi-domain WSON. Finally, comprehensive simulations are conduced to verify the effectiveness of CCMF and the proposed mechanisms.     

Enhancing Search Performance in Unstructured P2P Networks Based on Users' Common Interest

Peer-to-peer (P2P) networks establish loosely coupled application-level overlays on top of the Internet to facilitate efficient sharing of resources. They can be roughly classified as either structured or unstructured networks. Without stringent constraints over the network topology, unstructured P2P networks can be constructed very efficiently and are therefore considered suitable to the Internet environment. However, the random search strategies adopted by these networks usually perform poorly with a large network size. In this paper, we seek to enhance the search performance in unstructured P2P networks through exploiting users' common interest patterns captured within a probability-theoretic framework termed the user interest model (UIM). A search protocol and a routing table updating protocol are further proposed in order to expedite the search process through self organizing the P2P network into a small world. Both theoretical and experimental analyses are conducted and demonstrated the effectiveness and efficiency of our approach.     

面向用户需求的非结构化P2P资源定位泛洪策略

在非结构化P2P网络中,如何对用户所需资源进行快速、准确定位是当前研究的热点问题,也是P2P应用领域面临的核心问题之一.相关的非结构化P2P资源定位算法在查准率、查全率和查询成本上难以同时被优化,这会造成严重的网络带宽负担以及巨大的索引维护开销.为此,提出一种面向用户需求的非结构化P2P资源定位策略(user requirements resource location strategy,简称U2RLS).该策略的创新点是:在原有非结构化P2P网络资源定位泛洪算法的基础上,融入用户需求、用户偏好、用户兴趣度等因素,首先进行用户资源子网划分;采用带有用户需求信息的泛洪和查询索引机制,对用户所需资源进行精确定位.该策略有效避免了因海量信息引起的网络风暴、信息重叠和资源搜索偏覆盖等问题,从而解决了查询节点盲目使用中继节点的现象.实验结果表明:面向用户需求的非结构化P2P资源定位策略U2RLS以其高搜索成功率、有限网络资源消耗和短查询时间响应等优势,能够显著地提高用户资源定位效率.     

Analysis of TTL-Based Consistency in Unstructured Peer-to-Peer Networks

Consistency maintenance is important to the sharing of dynamic contents in peer-to-peer (P2P) networks. The TTL-based mechanism is a natural choice for maintaining freshness in P2P content sharing. This paper investigates TTL-based consistency maintenance in unstructured P2P networks. In this approach, each replica is assigned an expiration time beyond which the replica stops serving new requests unless it is validated. While TTL-based consistency is widely explored in many client-server applications, there has been no study on TTL-based consistency in P2P networks. Our main contribution is an analytical model that studies the search performance and the freshness of P2P content sharing under TTL-based consistency. Due to the random nature of request routing, P2P networks are fundamentally different from most existing TTL-based systems in that every node with a valid replica has the potential to serve any other node. We identify and discuss the factors that affect the performance of P2P content sharing under TTL-based consistency. Our results indicate a tradeoff between search performance and freshness: the search cost decreases sublinearly with decreasing freshness of P2P content sharing. We also compare two types of unstructured P2P networks and find that clustered P2P networks improve the freshness of content sharing over flat P2P networks under TTL-based consistency.     

Semantic routing of search queries in P2P networks

Peer-to-peer (P2P) networks are beginning to form the infrastructure of future applications. Heavy network traffic limits the scalability of P2P networks. Indexing is a method to reduce this traffic. But indexes tend to become large with the growth of the network. Also, limiting the size of these indexes causes loss of indexing information. In this paper we introduce a novel ontology based index (OI) which limits the size of the indexes without sacrificing indexing information. We show that the method can be employed by many P2P networks. The OI sits on top of routing and maintenance modules of a P2P network and enhances it. The OI prunes branches of search trees which have no chance to proceed to a response. Also the OI guarantees that an enhanced routing algorithm and its basic version have the same result set for a given search query. This means that the OI reduces traffic without reducing quality of service. To measure the performance of the OI we apply it on Chord (DHT based) and HyperCup (non-DHT based) P2P networks and show that it reduces the networks’ traffic significantly.     

基于拥塞控制的非结构化P2P网络的路由负载均衡策略

非结构化P2P(unstructured peer-to-peer network)对等网络中的节点资源定位的路由查询是对等网络研究中的一个主要难题,特别是当网络中客户端节点由于其频繁加入、离开导致网络结构动态变化所带来的资源查询难题.提出了一种新的基于拥塞控制的路由查询方法来实现动态网络下的资源查询.该方法分两部分实现:首先是网络资源的分组与节点重连策略.该策略使得具有同等资源的节点相互连接,并周期性地调整节点上的节点连接数量以减少同组资源节点上的负载.通过以上策略,使得网络的拓扑结构自动地从随机网络结构进化到以资源组为单位的聚类网络,从而使得网络中形成网络资源组间的查询负载均衡.另一方面,组内的节点之间的路由负载均衡是通过节点间协同学习实现的.采用协同Q-学习方法,所研究的方法不仅从节点上学习其处理能力、连接数和资源的个数等参数,还将节点的拥塞状态作为协同Q-学习的重要参数,并建立模型.通过这种技术,同一组节点上的资源查询被有目的地引导,以避开那些组内拥塞的节点,从而最终实现资源组内节点之间的查询均衡.仿真实验结果表明,相比常用的random walk资源查找方法,该研究所实现的资源定位方法能够更迅速地实现网络的资源查询.仿真结果还表明,相比random walk方法,所提出的方法在网络高强度查询和网络节点动态加入和退出的情况下进行查询具有更高的鲁棒性和适应性.

PassCAR: A passive clustering aided routing protocol for vehicular ad hoc networks

Vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) are a promising architecture for vehicle-to-vehicle communications in the transportation field. However, the frequent topology changes in VANETs create many challenges to data delivery because the vehicle velocity varies with time. Thus, designing an efficient routing protocol for stable and reliable communication is essential. Existing studies show that clustering is an elegant approach to efficient routing in a mobile environment. In particular, the passive clustering (PC) mechanism has been validated as a more efficient approach compared to traditional clustering mechanisms. However, the PC mechanism was primarily designed for mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs), and may be unsuitable for constructing a cluster structure in VANETs because it does not account for vehicle behavior and link quality. In this paper, we propose a passive clustering aided routing protocol, named PassCAR, to enhance routing performance in the one-way multi-lane highway scenario. The main goal of PassCAR is to determine suitable participants for constructing a stable and reliable cluster structure during the route discovery phase. Each candidate node self-determines its own priority to compete for a participant using the proposed multi-metric election strategy based on metrics such as node degree, expected transmission count, and link lifetime. Simulation results show that, compared with the original PC mechanism, PassCAR not only increases the successful probability of route discovery, but also selects more suitable nodes to participate in the created cluster structure. This well-constructed cluster structure significantly improves the packet delivery ratio and achieves a higher network throughput due to its preference for reliable, stable, and durable routing paths.     

Peer-to-Peer in Metric Space and Semantic Space

This paper first proposes three improved gossip mechanisms by mapping links into metric space and dynamically adapting the number of selected neighbors to disseminate messages. Experiments and comparisons show that these mechanisms can improve the performance of gossip in peer-to-peer (P2P) networks. This is the effect of mapping a network into a metric space that differentiates nodes and links according to linking characteristics and controlling local information flow with knowing such differences. A further study about query routing on P2P semantic link network shows that mapping a network into a semantic space can also improve the performance. An intrinsic rule is found by experimental comparisons and analysis: the performance of a P2P network can be improved by designing an appropriate mapping from the network into metric space or semantic space. A general framework for networking with metric space and semantic space is suggested     

A cross-layer middleware for context-aware cooperative application on mobile ad hoc peer-to-peer network

Mobile ad hoc peer-to-peer (P2P) applications become popular for providing the file sharing, voice communicating, and video streaming services due to entertainments and disaster recovery. However, both the topology of wireless network and the overlay of P2P network are dynamic, so the middleware is proposed to integrate such architectures of service-oriented applications. Therefore, we propose context-aware cooperative application (CACA) to overcome the frequent churn and high mobility problems. CACA proposes a cross-layer middleware to integrate DHT-based lookup, anycast query, and P2P delivery via the IPv6 routing header. Through anycast query, the response delay can be shortened and the query duplication can be minimized. Via IPv6 routing header, the delivery efficiency can be improved. Through the cross-layer design, the finger table in overlay layer is combined with the routing table in network layer to heighten proximity. The simulation results demonstrate that CACA has the outstanding performances of short download delay, high playback continuity, and low signaling overhead in mobile ad hoc network.
