Abstract

This paper presents design concepts and implementation overview of an Internet-sharing system, iShare. iShare supports end users as well as providers of Internet resources in disseminating, accessing and using these resources, in a way that allows open participation. A fully decentralized organization allows providers to simply post their resources on any web page, imposing no restrictions on resources attributes, administrative rules, and access protocols. Underneath its user surface it employs peer-to-peer information dissemination, advanced resource matching, open migration, and automatic service portal mechanisms. In addition to the qualitative comparison with related work, we evaluate the system in terms its efficiency of resource discovery and job execution.
