Building topology-aware overlays using global soft-state

by Zhichen Xu, Chunqiang Tang, Zheng Zhang , 2002
"... Recent peer-to-peer (P2P) networks, represented by CAN, Chord, and Pastry, offer an administration-free and faulttolerant application-level overlay network. For these systems to function efficiently, they must make effective use of the underlying network topology. Existing ..."

SCRIBE: A large-scale and decentralized application-level multicast infrastructure

by Miguel Castro, Peter Druschel, Anne-Marie Kermarrec, Antony Rowstron - IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communications (JSAC , 2002
"... This paper presents Scribe, a scalable application-level multicast infrastructure. Scribe supports large numbers of groups, with a potentially large number of members per group. Scribe is built on top of Pastry, a generic peer-to-peer object location and routing substrate overlayed on the Internet, ..."

The design and implementation of an intentional naming system

by William Adjie-Winoto, Elliot Schwartz, Hari Balakrishnan, Jeremy Lilley - 17TH ACM SYMPOSIUM ON OPERATING SYSTEMS PRINCIPLES (SOSP '99) PUBLISHED AS OPERATING SYSTEMS REVIEW, 34(5):186--201, DEC. 1999 , 1999
"... This paper presents the design and implementation of the Intentional Naming System (INS), a resource discovery and service location system for dynamic and mobile networks of devices and computers. Such environments require a naming system that is (i) expressive, to describe and make requests based o ..."

-configure to form an application-level overlay network, which they use to discover new services, perform late binding, and maintain weak consistency of names using soft-state name exchanges and updates. We analyze the performance of the INS algorithms and protocols, present measurements of a Java

Overcast: Reliable Multicasting with an Overlay Network

by John Jannotti, David K. Gifford, Kirk L. Johnson, M. Frans Kaashoek, James W. O'Toole, Jr. , 2000
"... Overcast is an application-level multicasting system that can be incrementally deployed using today's Internet infrastructure. These properties stem from Overcast's implementation as an overlay network. An overlay network consists of a collection of nodes placed at strategic locations in a ..."

Exokernel: An Operating System Architecture for Application-Level Resource Management

by Dawson R. Engler, M. Frans Kaashoek, James O’toole , 1995
"... We describe an operating system architecture that securely multiplexes machine resources while permitting an unprecedented degree of application-specific customization of traditional operating system abstractions. By abstracting physical hardware resources, traditional operating systems have signifi ..."

significantly limited the performance, flexibility, and functionality of applications. The exokernel architecture removes these limitations by allowing untrusted software to implement traditional operating system abstractions entirely at application-level. We have implemented a prototype exokernel-based system

Turning Heterogeneity into an Advantage in Overlay Routing

by Zhichen Xu, Mallik Mahalingam, Magnus Karlsson , 2002
"... Distributed hash table (DHT)-based overlay networks, represented by Pastry, CAN, and Chord, offer an administration-free and fault-tolerant application-level overlay network. While elegant from a theoretical perspective, these systems have some disadvantages. First, they rely on applicationlevel rou ..."

Resilient Overlay Networks

by David Andersen, Hari Balakrishnan, Frans Kaashoek, Robert Morris , 2001
"... A Resilient Overlay Network (RON) is an architecture that allows distributed Internet applications to detect and recover from path outages and periods of degraded performance within several seconds, improving over today’s wide-area routing protocols that take at least several minutes to recover. A R ..."

Tapestry: A Resilient Global-scale Overlay for Service Deployment

by Ben Y. Zhao, Ling Huang, Jeremy Stribling, Sean C. Rhea, Anthony D. Joseph, John D. Kubiatowicz - IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communications , 2004
"... We present Tapestry, a peer-to-peer overlay routing infrastructure offering efficient, scalable, locationindependent routing of messages directly to nearby copies of an object or service using only localized resources. Tapestry supports a generic Decentralized Object Location and Routing (DOLR) API ..."

Application-Level Multicast Using Content-Addressable Networks

by Sylvia Ratnasamy, Mark Handley, Richard Karp, Scott Shenker , 2001
"... Most currently proposed solutions to application-level multicast organize the group members into an application-level mesh over which a DistanceVector routing protocol, or a similar algorithm, is used to construct source-rooted distribution trees. The use of a global routing protocol limits the s ..."
