Welcome to the Tidal News project web pages

Tidal News is an ICT research project funded by the Norwegian Research Council. The project focuses on properties of and mechanisms for large-scale data dissemination in the Internet including both cluster-based and infrastructure-less P2P systems. Applications of interest range from devising new technologies for online social networks to improving the protocols that power up large-scale clusters of companies like Google and Amazon.com. We emphasize non-functional properties of dissemination (including privacy, dependability, and adaptivity) while also considering dissemination semantics (such as a notification system and publish/subscribe for textual documents).

Additional details about our research can be found in the project vision statement and publications.
