Lighthouses for Scalable Distributed Location
, 2003
"... This paper introduces Lighthouse, a scalable location mechanism for wide-area networks. Unlike existing vector-based systems such as GNP, we show how network-location can be established without using a xed set of reference points. This lets us avoid the communication bottlenecks and single-poin ..."

A Distributed Location System for the Active Office
, 1993
"... Computer and commmunications systems continue to proliferate... This article describes the technology of a system for locating people and equipment, and the design of a distributed system service supporting access to that information. The application interfaces which are made possible by, or benefit ..."

A Scalable Location Service for Geographic Ad Hoc Routing,”
- Proceedings of ACM/IEEE MobiCom
, 2000
"... Abstract. GLS is a new distributed location service which tracks mobile node locations. GLS combined with geographic forwarding allows the construction of ad hoc mobile networks that scale to a larger number of nodes than possible with previous work. GLS is decentralized and runs on the mobile node ..."

A New Location Technique for the Active Office
, 1997
"... Configuration of the computing and communications systems found at home and in the workplace is a complex task that currently requires the attention of the user. Recently, researchers have begun to examine computers that would autonomously change their functionality based on observations of who or ..."

or what was around them. By determining their context, using input from sensor systems distributed throughout the environment, computing devices could personalize themselves to their current user, adapt their behavior according to their location, or react to their surroundings. The authors present a
Pastry: Scalable, distributed object location and routing for large-scale peer-to-peer systems
, 2001
"... This paper presents the design and evaluation of Pastry, a scalable, distributed object location and routing scheme for wide-area peer-to-peer applications. Pastry provides application-level routing and object location in a potentially very large overlay network of nodes connected via the Internet. ..."

The Amoeba Distributed Operating System
, 1992
"... INTRODUCTION Roughly speaking, we can divide the history of modern computing into the following eras: d 1970s: Timesharing (1 computer with many users) d 1980s: Personal computing (1 computer per user) d 1990s: Parallel computing (many computers per user) Until about 1980, computers were huge, e ..."

, expensive, and located in computer centers. Most organizations had a single large machine. In the 1980s, prices came down to the point where each user could have his or her own personal computer or workstation. These machines were often networked together, so that users could do remote logins on other
Freenet: A Distributed Anonymous Information Storage and Retrieval System
- INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP ON DESIGNING PRIVACY ENHANCING TECHNOLOGIES: DESIGN ISSUES IN ANONYMITY AND UNOBSERVABILITY
, 2001
"... We describe Freenet, an adaptive peer-to-peer network application that permits the publication, replication, and retrieval of data while protecting the anonymity of both authors and readers. Freenet operates as a network of identical nodes that collectively pool their storage space to store data ..."

Scale and performance in a distributed file system
- ACM Transactions on Computer Systems

"... The Andrew File System is a location-transparent distributed tile system that will eventually span more than 5000 workstations at Carnegie Mellon University. Large scale affects performance and complicates system operation. In this paper we present observations of a prototype implementation, motivat ..."
