LOBS: Load Balancing for Similarity Peer-to-Peer Structures

The real-life experience with the similarity search shows that this task is both difficult and very expensive in terms of processing time. The peer-to-peer structures seem to be a suitable solution for content-based retrieval in huge data collections. In these systems, the computational load generated by a query traffic is highly skewed which degrades the searching performance. Since no current load-balancing techniques are designed for this task, the paper proposes LOBS - a novel and general system for load-balancing in peer-to-peer structures with time-consuming searching. LOBS is based on the following principles: measuring the computational load of the peers, separation of the logical and the physical level of the system, and detailed analysis of the load source to exploit either data relocation or data replication.
