Resource discovery is a challenging issue in unstructured peer-to-peer networks. Blind search approaches, including flooding and random walks, are the two typical algorithms used in such systems. Blind flooding is not scalable because of its high communication cost. On the other hand, the performance of random walks approaches largely depends...

The Semantic Web enables the possibility to model, create and query resources found on the Web. Enabling the full potential of its technologies at the Internet level requires infrastructures that can cope with scalability challenges while supporting expressive queries. The attractive features of the Peer-to-Peer (P2P) communication model, and...

The Semantic Web enables the possibility to model, create and query resources found on the Web. Enabling the full potential of its technologies at the Internet level requires infrastructures that can cope with scalability challenges and support various types of queries. The attractive features of the Peer-to-Peer (P2P) communication model such...

One of the key elements of the Semantic Web is the Resource Description Framework (RDF). Efficient storage and retrieval of RDF data in large scale settings is still challenging and existing solutions are monolithic and thus not very flexible from a software engineering point of view. In this paper, we propose a modular system, based on the...

Since the appearance of distributed computing technology, there has been a significant effort in designing and building the infrastructure needed to tackle the challenges raised by complex scientific applications that require massive computational resources. This increases the awareness to harness the power and flexibility of Clouds that have...
