here is the abstract of my Minor Thesis(very fresh.. not yet submitted!). bit technical, but will give an idea about what i'm doing.. have a look.. good luck..
Abstract
----------
Commercial Content Delivery Networks create their own network of servers around the globe to effectively deliver Web content to the end-users. The peering of Content Delivery Networks (CDN) would increase the efficiency of commercial CDNs. But still the high rental rates resulting from huge infrastructure cost make it inaccessible to medium and low profile clients . Academic models of peer-to-peer CDNs aim to reduce the financial cost of content distribution by forming volunteer group of servers around the globe. But their efficiency is at the mercy of the volunteer peers whose commitment is not ensured in their design. We propose a new architecture that will make use of the existing resources of common Internet users in terms of storage space, bandwidth and Internet connectivity to create a Distributed Content Delivery Network (DCDN). The profit pool generated by the infrastructure savings will be shared among the participating nodes (DCDN surrogates) which will function as an incentive for them to support DCDN. Since the system uses the limited computing resources of common Internet users, we also propose a suitable load balancing (LB) algorithm so that DCDN surrogates are not burdened with heavy load and requests are fairly assigned to them. Simulations have been carried out and the results show that the proposed architecture (with LB) can offer same or even better performance as that of commercial CDN.

Hello Father,
Let me take the privillage to put the first comment on this post.Good to see you in blogging.
Nice thoughts... looks like a revolutionary idea on its way out !
all the very best !
Few thoughts immediately came to my mind, more questiosns once i put my head fully on it ( if time permits) :))
1) When you say distributed content delivery, is the content is exactly replicated in all nodes ?
2) When you say, load balancer, is all the requests go through this load balancer to each node ? Do you have any mechnism in your architecure to route the request to geographically nearest node.
happy to hear u jisso.
thanks for the comments. The answer to first question is yes. the load balancer in DCDN is called DCDN server. according to me, it has got two functions - http.url redirection and load balancing. But there DCDN servers are very local and will be operated by DCDN fanchises..! clever idea, isn't it.. i've got a business model as well, which will go along with it..
Hello jaison,
Firsly want to say good on ya unremitting effort to protect your rights.
My name is Julia. I'm a student from RMIT as well, and I'm planning to buy an Apple laptop exactly as you brought from the Compnow, however, I have few question about this machine. This is the first I'm planning to buy a laptop, and the one that I've been dreaming about for years. I'm just wondering if you can tell something about your experiences of using this one(except the faults :P) and also if you can tell me whether to buy a 3 year warranty extension due to the computer is one of the most updated technology in the world.
It is much appreciate if you can send an email to help me to find out an answer. my email address is s3169047@student.rmit.edu.au
Thank you very much once again.
Cheers,
Julia
