Spreading information in distributed cloud systems using Gossip algorithm

Abstract

In a following article problem of a information sharing in distributed systemis described, as well ways of solving that problem with emphasize on Gossip protocol are presented. Furthermore theapplication has been creating allowing to test the Gossip protocol in a lab environment. Gossip protocolis highly parameterized and can be working in several modes. The main goal of the article is to examinethe work of the Gossip algorithm, depending on the chosen mode and values of parameters, andanalyses of a results.
