New hybrid distributed voting algorithm
This work addresses the need for improved reputation systems in decentralized environments, but it appears incremental as it builds on existing distributed vote designs.
The paper tackles the problem of rating content in decentralized systems by proposing a new hybrid distributed voting algorithm that operates within the Kademlia P2P DHT network, but no concrete results or numbers are provided.
Increasing data volumes requires additional rating techniques. Reputation systems are the subject of much research. There are various techniques to rate content that facilitate the search of quality content. Page rank, citation index and votes from users are some rating examples. In the article I focus on decentralized vote systems. The article reviews several distributed vote designs. I list the distributed vote requirements. A new hybrid algorithm is proposed which operates in the structured overlay P2P DHT Kademlia network.
