  2. JXTA - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JXTA

    A peer group provides a scope for message propagation and a logical clustering of peers. In JXTA, every peer is a member of a default group, NetPeerGroup, but a given peer can be member of many sub-groups at the same time. A peer may play different roles in different groups; it may act as an edge peer in one group, but a rendezvous in another.

  3. Peer-to-peer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peer-to-peer

    A peer-to-peer (P2P) network in which interconnected nodes ("peers") share resources amongst each other without the use of a centralized administrative system. Peer-to-peer (P2P) computing or networking is a distributed application architecture that partitions tasks or workloads between peers.

  4. Client–server model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Client–server_model

    Ideally, a peer does not need to achieve high availability because other, redundant peers make up for any resource downtime; as the availability and load capacity of peers change, the protocol reroutes requests. Both client-server and master-slave are regarded as sub-categories of distributed peer-to-peer systems. [23]

  6. Gnutella - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gnutella

    Gnutella is a peer-to-peer network protocol. Founded in 2000, it was the first decentralized peer-to-peer network of its kind, leading to other, later networks adopting the model. [1] In June 2005, Gnutella's population was 1.81 million computers [2] increasing to over three million nodes by January 2006. [3]

  7. Overlay network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overlay_network

    Overlay multicast is also known as End System or Peer-to-Peer Multicast. High bandwidth multi-source multicast among widely distributed nodes is a critical capability for a wide range of applications, including audio and video conferencing, multi-party games and content distribution.

  8. Chord (peer-to-peer) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chord_(peer-to-peer)

    Nodes and keys are assigned an -bit identifier using consistent hashing.The SHA-1 algorithm is the base hashing function for consistent hashing. Consistent hashing is integral to the robustness and performance of Chord because both keys and nodes (in fact, their IP addresses) are uniformly distributed in the same identifier space with a negligible possibility of collision.

  9. Gossip protocol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gossip_protocol

    A gossip protocol or epidemic protocol is a procedure or process of computer peer-to-peer communication that is based on the way epidemics spread. [1] Some distributed systems use peer-to-peer gossip to ensure that data is disseminated to all members of a group.
