Investigation of Research towards Efficient Social Peer-to-Peer Networks
Lu Liu, Nick Antonopoulos, Jie Xu, Duncan J. Russell · 2008
Peer-to-peer (P2P) networks attract attentions worldwide with their great success in file sharing networks (e.g. Napster, Gnutella, BitTorrent, and Kazaa). In the last decade, numerous studies have been devoted to the problem of resource discovery in P2P networks. However, efficient resource discovery remains a key challenge for large-scale P2P networks. An investigation of existing research on resource discovery towards efficient social P2P networks will be given in this paper.
