Modelling Flash Crowd
Performance in Peer-to-Peer Systems: Challenges
and Opportunities
Yong Meng TEO Department of Computer Science National University of Singapore Email: teoym@comp.nus.edu.sg url: www.comp.nus.edu.sg/~teoym The Internet is a pervasive medium for content distribution. It is estimated that in 2015, it will take us five years to view all video crossing IP networks each second. When new content is made available, file distribution systems often have to cope with a sudden surge in the number of users, called flash crowd, without loss of download performance. Flash crowds can have serious consequences on business revenue. For example, Amazon estimates that its sales decrease by 1% for every 100ms delay due to flash crowds, and Google reports that half a second increase in waiting time results in a 20% decrease in traffic. This keynote discusses a new approach in modeling the performance of peer-assisted file distribution systems with flash crowds [1, 3]. Peer-assisted file distribution systems extend client-server systems [2, 4]. The peers download a file as a client but at the same time act like servers by sharing the file across peers, thus improving the overall system download performance. This keynote is divided into three main parts. First, we review three main approaches in analysis flash crowd performance, namely, measurement, simulation and analytic models. Secondly, based on insights drawn from extensive measurement studies, we propose a general analytical model for understanding flash crowd performance [1, 3]. We show that the utilization of available peer bandwidth over the duration of flash crowd can be characterized by three distinct phases called startup, maximum utilization and end-game. We discuss the applications of our model by users, service providers and protocols designers of peer-assisted file distribution systems. In conclusion, we highlight a number of challenges and opportunities in modeling flash crowd performance in web-based and mobile applications.

Advances in Particle Swarm
Algorithms in Asynchronous, Discrete, and Multi-Objective Optimization Zuwairie Ibrahim Univerisyt of Malaysia in Pahang Malaysia Email: zuwairie.ibrahim@gmail.com
This lecture presents the latest advancement of Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) in asynchronous update, discrete, and multi-objective problems. PSO is a population based stochastic optimization algorithm, inspired by the social behavior of bird flocking and fish schooling. PSO has been introduced by Kennedy and Eberhart and contains a group of particles that move in a search space searching for an optimum solution according to a particular objective function. The movement of a particle is subjected to its own best found solution, pBest, and the best found solution in the neighborhood, gBest. Synchronous Asynchronous Particle Swarm Optimization
Originally, PSO
was introduced as a synchronous update algorithm (S-PSO), where the particles
velocity and position are updated after the whole swarm performance is
evaluated. Asynchronous update in PSO
has been explored recently. A particle in asynchronous PSO (A-PSO) updates
its velocity and position as soon after its own performance is evaluated. In
this paper, we attempt to improve PSO by merging both synchronous and
asynchronous update in the search process. The proposed algorithm, which is
named as, Synchronous – Asynchronous PSO (SA-PSO), divides the particles into
smaller groups. The best member of the group and the swarm’s best are chosen
to lead the search. The members of the group are updated synchronously while
the groups are asynchronously updated. Five well known unimodal functions and
four multimodal functions are used here to study the performance of the
proposed algorithm. The performance of the algorithm is compared with three
existing PSO algorithms. The results show that the proposed algorithm is able
to consistently produce good optimal solutions.
Multi-State Particle Swarm Optimization:
A new version of PSO for discrete optimization problem called multi-state particle swarm optimization (MSPSO) is introduced. The MSPSO algorithm works based on a simplified mechanism of transition between two states. In order to avoid the repetitive states, a rule is embedded in the MSPSO algorithm. The performance of the MSPSO is emperically compared to original and BPSO based on six sets of selected benchmarks instances of traveling salesman problem (TSP). The experimental results showed the effectiveness of the newly introduced approach, regarding its ability to consistently outperforms the binary-based algorithms in solving the discrete optimization problem.
Multi-Leaders Dominance-based Vector Evaluated Particle Swarm Optimization
The Vector Evaluated Particle Swarm Optimisation (VEPSO) algorithm has been widely used in solving multi-objective optimisation problems. In the VEPSO algorithm, particles of a swarm use the best solution found by their neighbourhood swarm to guide their movement. Due to its simplicity, the VEPSO mechanism is not capable in producing good solutions for multi-objective optimisation problems. Hence, dominance and multi leaders concept are introduced to improve the VEPSO algorithm. The improved VEPSO is measured by the number of non-dominated solutions found, Generational Distance, Spread, and Hypervolume. This analysis shows that improved VEPSO signicantly improves upon the original VEPSO algorithm.
