Abstract
Recent work on peer-to-peer systems has demonstrated the ability to
deliver low latencies and good load balance when demand for data items is
relatively uniform. We describe a lightweight, adaptive, and
system-neutral replication protocol, LAR, that delivers low latencies and
good load balance even when demand is heavily skewed.
Simulation of LAR in combination with both the Chord and TerraDir systems
shows that LAR quickly adapts to non-uniformity in both the underlying
system topology and in the input stream. Further, we demonstrate better
performance than functionally similar application-layer protocols, using
an order of magnitude less network bandwidth.
