The semantic naming and data-centric security paradigm of Named Data Networking opens up new possibilities for building decentralized applications. In this poster, we identify some factors that lead to centralization and non-interoperability of cloud ...

There is a great interest in many approaches towards blockchain in providing a solution to record transactions in a decentralized way. However, there are some limitations when storing large files or documents on the blockchain. In order to meet the ...

NDN proposes a data-centric communication model which makes it possible to fetch data identified by a name carried in Interest packets. We developed a file sharing application, called ndnShare, for mobile devices. It supports the name-based information ...

Peer-to-peer file sharing envisions a data-centric dissemination model, where files consisting of multiple data pieces can be downloaded from any peer that can offer the data or from multiple peers simultaneously. This objective, implemented at the ...

Peer-to-peer (P2P) networks play an important role in communication and resource sharing. In recent years, the importance of(P2P) networks has increased due to their scalability and simple, cost-efficient model. P2P file-sharing systems with ...

Users have accumulated years of personal data in cloud storage, creating potential privacy and security risks. This agglomeration includes files retained or shared with others simply out of momentum, rather than intention. We presented 100 online-survey ...

The aim of this article is to provide an understanding of social networks as a useful addition to the standard toolbox of techniques used by system designers. To this end, we give examples of how data about social links have been collected and used in ...

People share personal content online with varied audiences, as part of tasks ranging from conversational-style content sharing to collaborative activities. We use an interview- and diary-based study to explore: 1) what factors impact channel choice for ...

Along with the development of mobile devices, it became convenient to produce and consume media contents and accordingly, various media applications have been developed. Proliferation of media contents and the desire to share them with others necessitate ...

BitTorrent splits the files that are shared on a P2P network into fragments and then spreads these by giving the highest priority to the rarest fragment. We propose a mathematical model that takes into account several factors such as the peer ...

It is well known that the content distribution system based on peer-to-peer P2P networks has become the primary means for the majority of internet users to share their files, and that BitTorrent BT, as the most popular technology in P2P systems, ...

A peer-to-peer (P2P) file sharing system provides a platform that enables a tremendous number of nodes to share their files. Retrieving desired files efficiently and trustworthily is critical in such a large and jumbled system. However, the issues of ...

Current reputation systems for peer-to-peer (P2P) file sharing networks suffer from high overhead on reputation querying. Also, purely relying on a threshold to detect malicious nodes may make a high-reputed node be reluctant to further increase its ...

Users often connect two mobile devices at close range to transfer files such as pictures and movies from one device to another. In this paper, we present HoverLink, a new form of joint interactions on two mobile touchscreen devices such as smartphones ...

In this paper we present an upper-limb tele-rehabilitation solution suitable for patients suffering motor impairments due to neurological diseases (e.g. Parkinson's disease). The solution is based on patient subsystems connected to a clinician subsystem ...

Bittorrent is one of the most popular file sharing applications on the Internet. It is well-known that its success mainly depends on its user cooperation. Systems with a small number of altruist users or without incentive mechanisms are fated to ...

In this paper, we propose a new consistency maintenance scheme for P2P file sharing systems which allow end-users to update shared files. The basic idea of the proposed scheme is to construct a static tree for each file to efficiently propagate the ...

Peer-to-peer networks' widespread use makes multimedia files available to users worldwide. However, such networks are often used to spread illegal material while the data source and acquiring users remain anonymous. This article analyzes activity ...

Various services for sharing data among people are available on the Web. However, we can share data only when we know the network accounts or when we have a shared common repository; and sharing data with new acquaintances is not easy. We will introduce ...

In this paper, we propose a novel file-sharing system called Local Cloud Storage (LCS), based on the leading-edge device called "wireless memory" such as Eye-Fi and Flash Air. Most interesting point is that wireless configuration of multiple devices is ...
