摘要:
Arrangements are provided for efficient erasure coding of files to be distributed and later retrieved from a peer-to-peer network, where such files are broken up into many fragments and stored at peer systems. The arrangements further provide a routine to determine the probability that the file can be reconstructed. The arrangements further provide a method of performing the erasure coding in an optimized fashion, allowing fewer occurrences of disk seeks.

A method and system is provided for monitoring the availability of a peer in a P2P system that is used to provide remote storage or remote processing power. In one illustrative example, a recipient peer requests access to a service provisioned by another peer in a peer-to-peer network. The request may be a request to access a file or a file fragment that is being stored on the other peer. In order to make use of the accessed service, after receiving access to the service provisioned by the peer, the recipient peer needs to report to a central server that the service has been rendered. For instance, in some cases the file fragment accessed by the recipient peer may be encrypted, in which case the central server will send the recipient peer a decryption key after receiving the report that the service has been rendered.

A web services namespace pertains to an infrastructure for enabling creation of a wide variety of applications. The infrastructure provides a foundation for building message-based applications of various scale and complexity. The infrastructure or framework provides APIs for basic messaging, secure messaging, reliable messaging and transacted messaging. In some embodiments, the associated APIs are factored into a hierarchy of namespaces in a manner that balances utility, usability, extensibility and versionability.

Embodiments of erasure coded storage aggregation are disclosed. The erasure coded storage aggregation includes storing a data file as erasure coded fragments in a plurality of nodes of one or more data centers. The erasure coded storage aggregation further includes monitoring an access frequency of the data file. Based on the comparison between the access frequency and a predetermined threshold, the data file is either reconstructed from the erasure coded fragments and stored in a storage node or retained as erasure coded fragments in the plurality of nodes of the one or more data centers.

A mechanism for sending structured data using a corresponding byte stream. Upon accessing structured data such as a Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP) envelope, a byte stream is generated. The byte stream includes bytes that represent the structured data, as well as a collection of bytes that represents properties about the byte stream such as, for example, a mode of communication. The byte stream may then be passed to a communication module (e.g., a TCP or Named Pipes module) capable of receiving and transmitting the byte stream.

Providing a market design for a peer-to-peer resource exchange system. Prices for a plurality of resources such as storage space, upload bandwidth, and download bandwidth are calculated and balanced based on previous resource prices, a supply of the resources, and a demand for the resources. Further, prices for operations such as storage and retrieval are determined such that a total of the payments to resource suppliers equals a total of the payments received from the resource consumers. In some embodiments, incoming data operation requests are allocated to the peers such that equilibrium among the peers is achieved.

A convolutional neural network is implemented on a graphics processing unit. The network is then trained through a series of forward and backward passes, with convolutional kernels and bias matrices modified on each backward pass according to a gradient of an error function. The implementation takes advantage of parallel processing capabilities of pixel shader units on a GPU, and utilizes a set of start-to-finish formulas to program the computations on the pixel shaders. Input and output to the program is done through textures, and a multi-pass summation process is used when sums are needed across pixel shader unit registers.
