A P2P Algorithm for a Smart Information System.

Last generation applications, often, generate a huge amount of data also characterized by high variety and velocity, like those Internet of Things (IoT) paradigm based. Big data analytics increasingly drive decision making in several fields and, then, new approaches and methodologies are needed to improve management operations. Mobile, social and ubiquitous services, comprising data sources and middleware, can be considered a dynamic content, and an effective solution to manage contents are the Content Delivery Networks (CDNs). However, CDNs show limits in dynamic and large systems in which a large amount of data is managed. To deal with these weaknesses and exploit their benefits, new algorithms and approaches have to be designed and employed. This paper introduces RadixOne, a distributed and self-organizing algorithm, to build an information system in pervasive and dynamic environments. Thanks to autonomous and local operations performed by hosts of a distributed system, a logically organized overlay network emerges and the resource discovery operations faster and efficient. Preliminary experimental results show the effectiveness of our approach.
