However, the overhead caused by proof of compliance on authorization and the absence of certifying authorities may negate the strong and objective security advantages of policy-based approach, whilst vagueness, complexity and inaccurate characterization caused by reputation evolution may eliminate the quantitative and flexible advantages of reputation-based approach. We propose an adaptive trust management framework, which combines the merit of policy proof and reputation evolution such that authorization is aware of not only the strong and objective security traits, but also the calculability and the availability security traits. Finally, the framework of system is proposed.展开更多

To effectively elimi- nate P2P botnet, a delayed SEIR model is proposed,which can portray the formation process of P2P botnet. Then, the local stability at equilibria is carefully analyzed by considering the eigenvalues＇ distributed ranges of characteristic equations. Both mathematical analysis and numerical simulations show that the dynamical features of the proposed model rely on the basic re- production number and time delay r. The results can help us to better understand the propagation behaviors of P2P botnet and design effective counter-botnet methods.展开更多

In this semantic peer-to-peer environment, indexing semantic element of resource description to support efficient resource location is a difficult and challenging problem. This paper provided a hybrid indexing architecture, which combines local indexing and global indexing. It uses community strategy and semantic routing strategy to organize key layer metadata element and uses DHT (distributed hash table) to index extensional layer metadata element. Compared with related system, this approach is more efficient in resource location and more scalable.展开更多

In order to reduce query overhead, KSS (keyword-set search) by Gnawali partitions the index by a set of keywords. However, a KSS index is considerably larger than a standard inverted index, since there are more word sets than there are individual words. And the insert overhead and storage overhead are obviously un- acceptable for full-text search on a collection of documents even if KSS uses the distance window technology. In this paper, we extract the relationship information between query keywords from websites’ queries logs to improve performance of KSS system. Experiments results clearly demonstrated that the improved keyword-set search system based on keywords relationship (KRBKSS) is more efficient than KSS index in insert overhead and storage overhead, and a standard inverted index in terms of communication costs for query.展开更多

However, high heterogeneity of the P2P network, which rises not only from heterogeneous link capacity between peers but also from dynamic variation of available bandwidth, brings forward great challenge to video streaming. To attack this problem, an adaptive scheme based on rate-distortion optimization (RDO) is proposed in this paper. While low complexity RDO based frame dropping is exploited to shape bitrate into available bandwidth in peers, the streamed bitstream is dynamically switched among multiple available versions in an RDO way by the streaming server. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme based on RDO achieves great gain in overall perceived quality over simple heuristic schemes.展开更多
