     The distributed hash table is a parallelization of the hash table obtained by dividing the table into subtables of equal size and allocating them to the processors. […] We also discuss communication overheads, and find that, in the case of mesh multicomputers, unless the network channel bandwidth grows sufficiently as p grows, the network will eventually become a performance bottleneck for distributed hash tables.

(editors), Advances in Database Technology - EDBT 2006: 10th International Conference, Proceedings, Springer, LNCS 3896, page 131,

     We consider the conflicting problems of ensuring data-access load balancing and efficiently processing range queries on peer-to-peer data networks maintained over Distributed Hash Tables (DHTs).

     We study the problem of distributed RDFS reasoning and query answering on top of distributed hash tables. […] Our goal in this paper is to compare and evaluate two well-known approaches to RFDS reasoning, namely backward and forward chaining, on top of distributed hash tables. We show how to implement both algorithms on top of the distributed hash table Bamboo and prove their correctness.
