Study on Replication in Unstructured P2P System
Chuan Zhang · Mini-micro Systems · 2005
To improve unstructured peer-to-peer system performance,one wants to minimize the number of peers that have to be probed before the query is answered.One way to do this is to replicate the sharing data on several peers.This paper proposes a replication strategy with the consideration of heterogeneous resources among peers in the unstructured peer-to-peer system.In our strategy,the system copies the replication to high capacity peers.Experimental result shows our replication strategy reduces the network traffic greatly,and improves availability of the sharing data.
