Generalization of RC-Based Low Diameter Hierarchical Structured P2P Network Architecture

摘要

In this work, we have considered generalizing a non-DHTbased low diameter hierarchical structured P2P network which is designed applying modular arithmetic, called the Residue Class (RC). This is an interest based two level architecture. At its second level, diameter of each cluster (group) of peers is one. It helps in designing very efficient data lookup algorithms. Besides, complexity involved in data lookup is a function of the number of distinct resource types unlike in DHT-based structured P2P systems. In addition, use of the same code to denote a resource type and the corresponding group-head has made the search process simple and efficient.
