The Optimal Memory-Rate Trade-Off for the Non-Uniform Centralized Caching Problem With Two Files Under Uncoded Placement

Michael Christoph Gastpar, Pierre Victor Xavier Quinton, Saeid Sahraei

A new scheme for the problem of centralized coded caching with non-uniform demands is proposed. The distinguishing feature of the proposed placement strategy is that it admits equal sub-packetization for all files while allowing the users to allocate more ...

A New Converse Bound for Coded Caching

Michael Christoph Gastpar, Sung Hoon Lim, Chien-Yi Wang

An information-theoretic lower bound is developed for the caching system studied by Maddah-Ali and Niesen. By comparing the proposed lower bound with the decentralized coded caching scheme of Maddah-Ali and Niesen, the optimal memory--rate tradeoff is char ...

Self-organized fault-tolerant routing in peer-to-peer overlays

Karl Aberer, Wojciech Galuba, Zoran Despotovic

In sufficiently large heterogeneous overlays message loss and delays are likely to occur. This has a significant impact on overlay routing, especially on longer paths. The existing solutions to this problem rely on message redundancy to mask the loss and d ...

Query-driven indexing in large-scale distributed systems

Gleb Skobeltsyn

Efficient and effective search in large-scale data repositories requires complex indexing solutions deployed on a large number of servers. Web search engines such as Google and Yahoo! already rely upon complex systems to be able to return relevant query re ...

Scalable Peer-to-Peer Web Retrieval with Highly Discriminative Keys

Karl Aberer, Martin Rajman, Fabius Klemm, Vinh Toan Luu, Ivana Podnar

The suitability of peer-to-peer (P2P) approaches for full-text Web retrieval has recently been questioned because of the claimed unacceptable bandwidth consumption induced by retrieval from very large document collections. In this contribution we formalize ...

Scalable peer-to-peer Web search using highly discriminative keys

Vinh Toan Luu

Standard general-purpose Web retrieval relies on centralized search engines that do not realistically scale when applied to the exponentially growing number of documents available on the Web. By taking advantage of the resource sharing principle, Peer-to-P ...

Distributed Cache Table: Efficient Query-Driven Processing of Multi-Term Queries in P2P Networks

Karl Aberer, Gleb Skobeltsyn

The state-of-the-art techniques for processing multi-term queries in P2P environments are query flooding and inverted list intersection. However, it has been shown that due to scalability reasons both methods fail to support full-text search in large scale ...

SoS: self-organizing substrates

Anwitaman Datta

Large-scale networked systems often, both by design or chance exhibit self-organizing properties. Understanding self-organization using tools from cybernetics, particularly modeling them as Markov processes is a first step towards a formal framework which ...
