My Thesis Topics

Inspired by the power of Peer-to-Peer(P2P). P2P refers to the concept that in a network of equals (peers) using appropriate information and communication systems, two or more individuals are able to spontaneously collaborate without necessarily needing central coordination. In contrast to client/server networks, P2P networks promise improved scalability, lower cost of ownership, self-organized and decentralized coordination of previously underused or limited resources, greater fault tolerance, and better support for building ad hoc networks. These are my proposed thesis topic:

1. Clustering
is a group of linked computers, working together closely so that in many respects they form a single computer. It usually deployed to improve performance and/or availability over that provided by a single computer, while typically being much more cost-effective than single computers of comparable speed or availability.

2. Load Balancing
is a technique to distribute workload evenly across two or more computers, network links, CPUs, hard drives, or other resources, in order to get optimal resource utilization, maximize throughput, minimize response time, and avoid overload.

3. File Mirroring
strategy of copying data automatically from a source host computer to a destination host computer for backup purposes or for making the data accessible locally at the destination hosts.

Thesis Topic

Selecting a thesis topic is very difficult. It requires more time to research, do a lot of readings. Aside from it, your reading materials must came from IEEE , ACM, published books less than 3 year old and approved Graduate Thesis.

Tips:

1. Know what you really want.

2. Read a lot.

3. Don't make it complicated, as long as it involves algorithm, its good.

4. Don't give up researching.

5. Look forward on the reward.

6. Pray.
