Abstract

In this work we study the construction of a framework for autonomous sites that are bound to spatial information and that form an overlay network; we investigate the parameters of such a distributed system in order to perform search guided by locality and directionality in space. We present the main parameters of the framework and propose appropriate values for them. A theoretical study discusses the overall search efficiency limits for two approaches concerning the main framework parameter, i.e. the distance metric. Furthermore, the behavior of the rest of the framework parameters is examined based on an experimental study.
