Peer-to-Peer (P2P) computing offers many attractive features, such as collaboration, self-organization, load balancing, availability, fault tolerance and anonymity. However, it also faces many serious challenges. In our previous work, we implemented a synchronous P2P collaboration platform called TOMSCOP. Based on the elementary peer group services offered by the JXTA general framework, TOMSCOP provides four types of services: synchronous message transportation, peer room administration, peer communication support and application space management. By using the four services, different kinds of shared applications for various specific purposes can be relatively easily developed and associated collaborative cyber spaces or communities can be quickly built across the JXTA virtual network overlaid on top of the existing physical networks. However, the TOMSCOP was implemented only in Windows XP OS. In this paper, we extend our previous work and present the implementation of a Multi-Platform P2P System (MPPS). The proposed system operates very smoothly in UNIX Solaris 9 OS, LINUX Suse 9.1 OS, Mac OSX, Windows XP and NetBSD.

The article examines the main content and modern communication models of discourse / counter-discourse of «decommunization» in the information space of Ukraine. The theoretical basis for the scientific comprehension of the informational content of «decommunization» in today’s mass media discourse is not only the recent practice of its explication in the media, but also the problem of responsibility and compensation of «memory». Political manipulations in the Ukrainian symbolic space do not encourage the process of consolidation in its purification, but contribute to the parallel coexistence of different types of historical consciousness of the population (ethno-national and social).In the modern communication space of Ukraine, in connection with the change of the political elite and the main priority directions of the state information policy, the media monitors the effect of the so-called «normalization» of the discourse of «historical memory», which is caused by the transition from national-cultural to social-humanitarian. the vector of constructing reality within the state program. In practical media activity, this process is characterized by the formation of an independent discourse stream of regional elites and «decentralization of history», using strategies of toponymical appealing decommunized titles and functioning of hidden discourses of renaming. The «decentralization of history» in regional communication models is, in fact, a modern form of counter-discourse of «decommunization» and is most prevalent in the information space of the Southern and Eastern regions of Ukraine. The content of the marked materials is mainly devoted to criticism of renaming, attempts to return the old name or double name change, toponymic appeal, lack of historical / cultural / social and other correlation of the name to the region, inconsistency of the history / heroics of the region and approval of the new ones.Key words: communication, decommunisation, discourse, identity, information space, historical memory, media.

The City

The relevance of the study is determined by the features of urban space management: the tendency to self-organization of the city is accompanied by the participation of citizens in the processes of transforming the urban environment. The article discusses the features of the process of involving citizens in changing the urban environment; the aim of the study is to build a typology of citizen participation in the development of urban space. Particular attention is paid to the issues of interaction and harmonization of interests of municipal authorities and city residents. The research methodology is based on the principles of social constructivism and phenomenology, with the help of which it was possible to identify the motives and types of citizen participation in the development of urban space. The main results were the identification of the main ways of citizen participation in changing the city - active and passive, as well as building a typology of residents according to their degree of participation and interest in the development of urban space. Three main types were identified - detached, interested, decisive. In general, we can talk about the predominance of passive forms of citizen participation in the life of the city, as well as the actualization of the problem of civic activity: the emergence and active spread of online forms of civic activity makes us take a new look at the usual traditional offline forms.
