1 Introduction
--------------
Low-level
.........
"noteworthy" -- you probably mean "considerable".
participants -> the participants
How do participants "form a distributed system"?
interoperability = "eri systeemi toimivat yhdessä"? Selitä
"againts" -> against
(e.g., single point of failure) ? Is that a kind of fault?
Most notably -- according to whom? Reference?
identical -- probably "similar", as identical is very strong.
Not everyone has just the same computer &c.
responsabilities -> responsibilities
Why is "peer" italicized even though you don't really
define the term?
"each participant" -> "all participants"
"infracstructure" -> "infrastructure"
Medium-level
............
Lot of waffling in the two first paragraphs.
Aim for 50% reduction. Which words are necessary to really
convey the things you're talking about?
Low-level
.........
One of ... properties ... are efficient... and ....
-- plural or singular mismatch
In this thesis... -- both the preceding one and this one
are empty sentences, a truism and waffling.
In the end -- is this the end of the thesis itself? No. But
you make the reader mistake this to be it, and
in the next paragraph: "Oh, it *didn't* end?"
Easy-to-understand -- don't brag. It's enough to say
you discuss them, mentioning the tables here
is unnecessary.
Fenfire: the xanalogical storage model is in Alph
Essential part -- waffling again
We discover: urgh... this would be better to be said without
the personal modifier, and possibly not here
"most comprehensive" -- bragging. Better:
We attempt/have attempted
to comprehensively summarize ...
Genuine publications? Is this a fake one? "Original work"
or "references"...
Research problems
-----------------
Medium-level
...........
What are the two subsections doing here?
You just covered most of the ground, why are you repeating
parts of it.
Either stick to the non-sectioned chapter or make the sections
have more meat, but now the structure is off-balance.
What's fenfire related data?
What's a scroll block's identifier?
You're using a lot of terms that haven't been defined yet.
Would be better to postpone this to the section after
you've introduced the general stuff about fenfire.
Low-level
.........
Third problem: *ALL* data on given dates? That's a LOT!
Thesis overview
---------------
We had this, didn't we?
Key differences = differences between cryptographic key lengths?
Either say "between them", or just leave it out:
if you really give an overview, you're *expected*
to give the differences.
Propose system model: 1) missing an article, 2) what's a system model?
Simple algorithms to perform data lookups: weren't these
already in existing P2P algorithms?
Your algorithms are related to fenfire, right?
In that case, you should probably mention it ;)
In addition... : Waffle.
High-level
----------
You waffle a lot about P2P but don't even explain *what*
fenfire is in this section, just that it "implements the
xanalogical storage model", which is not true ;)
