Understanding Peer-to-Peer Technology
Main Article Content
Abstract
of a peer-to-peer network can be applied to many kinds of applications. It is not only limited to filesharing applications. Many projects have adopted peer-to-peer networks for their applications, such as SETI@home, a CPU sharing application, Oceanstore, a storage sharing application, and OverCite, a distributed version of the Citeseer digital library. An understanding of peer-to-peer technology will allow us to adapt the existing client/server model applications into a peer-to-peer model which may give us an alternative solution that is better than the existing one.
