Search in Peer-to-Peer File-Sharing Systems: Like Metasearch Engines, But Not Really
نویسندگان
چکیده
Peer-to-peer information systems have gained prominence of late with applications such as file sharing systems and grid computing. However, the information retrieval component of these systems is still limited because traditional techniques for searching and ranking are not directly applicable. This work compares search in peer-to-peer information systems to that in metasearch engines, and describes how they are unique. Many works describing advances in peer-to-peer information retrieval are cited.

متن کاملSearching the peer-to-peer networks: The community and their queries
Peer-to-Peer (P2P) networks provide a new distributed computing paradigm on the Internet for file sharing. The decentralized nature of P2P networks fosters cooperative and non-cooperative behaviors in sharing resources. Searching is a major component of P2P file sharing. Several studies have been reported on the nature of queries of World Wide Web (WWW) search engines, but studies on queries of...
متن کاملThe Darknet and the Future of Content Distribution
We investigate the darknet – a collection of networks and technologies used to share digital content. The darknet is not a separate physical network but an application and protocol layer riding on existing networks. Examples of darknets are peer-to-peer file sharing, CD and DVD copying, and key or password sharing on email and newsgroups. The last few years have seen vast increases in the darkn...
