Technology Used: Java IEEE 2011 Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attacks are a critical threat to the Internet. However, the memoryless feature of the Internet routing mechanisms makes it extremely hard to trace back to the source of these attacks. As a result, there is no effective and efficient method to deal with this issue so far. [...]
Technology Used: Java IEEE 2011 Generalization of the basic flooding search strategy for decentralized unstructured peer-to-peer (P2P) networks is done. A peer forwards a query to one of its neighbors using a probability that is a function of the number of connections in the overlay network of both. Moreover, this probability may also depend on [...]
Technology Used: Java Parallel and Distributed Systems, IEEE 2011 Download IEEE Projects 2011 Basepaper Although anonymizing Peer-to-Peer (P2P) systems often incurs extra traffic costs, many systems try to mask the identities of their users for privacy considerations. Existing anonymity approaches are mainly path-based: peers have to pre-construct an anonymous path before transmission. The overhead of [...]
Technology Used: Java Parallel and Distributed Systems, IEEE 2010 In location-based services, users with location-aware mobile devices are able to make queries about their surroundings anywhere and at any time. While this ubiquitous computing paradigm brings great convenience for information access, it also raises concerns over potential intrusion into user location privacy. To protect location [...]
