ARTICLES RELATED TO Peer-to-peer - Operation of peer-to-peer networks |  |  |  | Peer-to-peer - Operation of peer-to-peer networks: Encyclopedia II - Peer-to-peer - Operation of peer-to-peer networksThree major types of P2P network are:
Pure P2P:
Peers act as clients and server
There is no central server managing the network
There is no central router
Hybrid P2P:
Has a central server that keeps information on peers and responds to requests for that information.
Peers are responsible for hosting the information (as the central server does not store files), for letting the central server know what files they want to share, and for downloading its shareable resources ...

 |  |  | Peer-to-peer - Operation of peer-to-peer networks: Encyclopedia II - Peer-to-peer - Legal controversyUnder US law, "the Betamax decision" case holds that copying "technologies" are not inherently illegal, if substantial non-infringing use can be made of them. This decision, predating the widespread use of the Internet applies to most data networks, including peer-to-peer networks, since distribution of correctly licensed files can be performed. These non-infringing uses include sending open source software, public domain files and out of copyright works. Other jurisdictions te ...

This project referred to as LionShare is based on a second generation network, more specifically the Gnutella model. The main purpose of this network is to share academic material between users at many different academic institutions. The LionShare network ...

 |  |  | Peer-to-peer - Operation of peer-to-peer networks: Encyclopedia II - Peer-to-peer - Computer science perspectiveTechnically, a completely pure peer-to-peer application must implement only peering protocols that do not recognize the concepts of "server" and "client". Such pure peer applications and networks are rare. Most networks and applications described as peer-to-peer actually contain or rely on some non-peer elements, such as DNS. Also, real world applications often use multiple protocols and act as client, server, and peer simultaneously, or over time. Completely decentralized networks of peers have been in use for m ...

 |  |  | Peer-to-peer - Operation of peer-to-peer networks: Encyclopedia II - Peer-to-peer - Advantages of peer-to-peer networksAn important goal in peer-to-peer networks is that all clients provide resources, including bandwidth, storage space, and computing power. Thus, as nodes arrive and demand on the system increases, the total capacity of the system also increases. This is not true of a client-server architecture with a fixed set of servers, in which adding more clients could mean slower data transfer for all users.
The distributed nature of peer-to-peer networks also increases robustness in case of failures by replicating data over multiple peers, and - ...
