As the Internet becomes an important part of the infrastructure our society depends on, it is
crucial to construct networks that are able to work even when part of the network is …

Overlay networks are widely used to deploy functionality at edge nodes without changing
network routers. Each node in an overlay network maintains pointers to a set of neighbor …

The Internet inter-domain routing system is vulnerable. On the control plane, the de facto
Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) does not have built-in mechanisms to authenticate routing …

The growth of the Internet in terms of size and speed, as well as the flood of network
applications and services that have been deployed in the last few years, is indicative of a …

Structured P2P overlays provide a framework for building distributed applications that are
self-configuring, scalable, and resilient to node failures. Such systems have been …

A number of recent applications have been built on distributed hash tables (DHTs) based
overlay networks. Almost all DHT-based schemes employ a tight deterministic data …

The success and scale of the Internet and its protocol IP has spurred emergent distributed
technologies such as fog/edge computing and new application models based on distributed …

Blockchain (BC) systems are highly distributed peer-to-peer networks that offer an
alternative to centralized services and promise robustness to coordinated attacks. However …

Abstract Peer-to-Peer (P2P) overlay networks are a flexible way of creating decentralized
services. Although resilient to external Denial of Service attacks, overlay networks can be …
