The ever increasing growth of peer-to-peer networks calls for effective construction of overlays keeping in view the properties and capabilities of the underlay network.The capabilities of the peers participating in the network can be used effectively to bias the neighbor selection and improve the network performance by assigning more responsibility to nodes with high capabilities.This system considers the available bandwidth of peers for overlay formation in the Gnutella network.The designed system is tested with proper analysis and simulations to verify the functionality of the system.The simulated results show that the enhancements to Gnutella network improve performance of the network and results in better utilization of the system capabilities.
