Utilizing the Topology Property of Gnutella Peer-to-Peer Network to Improve its Scalability

Pla Information · 2003

The distribution of Gnutella topology nodes not only exhibits typical Power-Law property,but also has Small-World characteristic,on the other hand,its original protocol simply use flooding algorithm to query peer's information and not use above property to improve its search efficiency,so it exist poor scalability problem.For this reasons,a new query routing algorithm based on MCF(Maximum Connectivity First Algorithm)was proposed to resolve the problem,and at last,by analyzing its performance,it could improve the scalability of Gnutella network.
