P2P Overlay Network to Support E-commerce
نویسندگان
چکیده
P2P technology provides an excellent vehicle for the distribution of digital content at low cost to the content producer and distributor obviating the need for publishing middlemen. However, P2P content sharing networks are flawed with freeriding and copyright infringement. Providing financial incentives is one solution to overcome these problems; however the introduction of payments as a method for recompense into the P2P environment brings with it many challenges, in particular ensuring atomicity of transactions, non-repudiation and fair exchange of goods for payment. These issues are even more challenging due to the dynamic nature of pure P2P systems. In this paper we describe our overlay network of bank peers and illustrate how these challenges are addressed using our Bank service protocols. We have developed a prototype to demonstrate how digital learning material is exchanged for payments using these protocols. Finally, this paper presents an analysis of our network of bank peers based on the results gathered from our case study.

Efficient route maintenance in DHTs is still an area of very active research due to its complexity and multitude of aspects to be considered. In this paper we propose novel correctionon-failure (CoF) and correction-on-use (CoU) approaches that support route maintenance more efficiently than existing methods even under highly dynamical network conditions. In contrast to previous work which addre...
متن کاملOntology-Addressable Contents in P2P Networks
A critical issue for P2P systems is to perform an effective content retrieval taking into account semantic properties of what is searched. Important requirements to be considered for knowledge sharing in P2P systems are related to the inherent dynamism of the P2P context demanding for a decentralized sharing and administration of knowledge and to the role of Semantic Web techniques to support d...
متن کاملSearching and Streaming of Multimedia Content in P2p Overlay Network
A significant part of the Internet traffic is generated by peer-to-peer (P2P) applications. P2P used traditionally for file-sharing, and more recently for real-time communications and live media streaming. With little knowledge of the underlying network topology such applications discover a route to each other through an overlay network. P2P could be a promising start for enabling large-scale s...
