We present an argument in favor of forming coalitions of peers in a data swarming system consisting of peers with heterogeneous upload capacities. In this paper, a coalition refers to a set of peers that explicitly cooperate with other peers inside the coalition via choking, piece selection, and capacity allocation strategies. Furthermore, each peer in a coalition exchanges data with peers outside...
We present an argument in favor of forming coalitions of peers in a data swarming system consisting of peers with different upload capacities. A coalition is a set of peers with the same upload capacity that explicitly cooperate with other peers inside the coalition via choking and capacity allocation strategies. Further, each peer interacts with other peers outside its coalition via potentially distinct...
This research aims at providing a quantitative benefits assessment of enhancing the visibility in global supply chains. In particular, we describe how we model physical and information processes in a global maritime supply chain, and how delays propagate under different information scenarios. We describe how the model logic is validated in the context of a large scale project in which amongst others,...
Cloud computing is an emerging computing paradigm. It aims to share data valuations, and services transparently among users of a massive grid. It became a hot issue for its advantage such as "reduce costs", "increase business flexibility" and/or "provide business continuity". We study methods to discuss the cloud computing opportunity for Chinese IT industry. Build a...
