Trustworthy service caching: Cooperative search in P2P information systems

In B. H.-S. P. Giorgini & M. Winikoff (Eds.), Agent-oriented information systems: 5th international bi-conference workshop, AOIS 2003, Melbourne, Australia, July 14, 2003 and Chicago, IL, USA, October 13, 2003 ; Revised selected papers (Vol. 3030, pp. 32–44).

By: Y. Udupi n, P. Yolum* & M. Singh n

Ed(s): B. P. Giorgini & M. Winikoff

TL;DR: The main results are that, even with a small cache, agents can locate services more easily and benefit from being neighbours with others who have similar interests, and since the agents that cache services can act like service providers, a small number of initial service providers are enough to serve the information needs of the consumers.
