Peer-to-Peer (P2P) networks enable users to directly share digital
content (such as audio, video, and text files) as well as real-time
data (such as telephony traffic) with other users without depending
on a central server. Although originally popularized by unlicensed
online music services such as Napster, P2P networking has recently
emerged as a viable multimillion dollar business model for the
distribution of academic and clinical information,
telecommunications, and social networking. Written at an accessible
level for any reader familiar with fundamental Internet protocols,
Peer-to-Peer Networking and Applications explains the conceptual
operations and architecture underlying basic P2P systems using
well-known commercial systems as models. The book also delineates
the latest research directions, thereby providing not only a
sophisticated understanding of current systems, but also the means
to improve upon these systems with innovations that will better
performance, security, and flexibility. Peer-to-Peer Networking and
Applications is thus both a valuable starting point and an
important reference to those practioners employed by any of the 200
companies with approximately $400 million invested in this new and
lucrative technology.
