TP2P: Topology-based Peer-to-Peer System for Efficient Resources Lookup
Bong-Kwan Cha, Dong-Yun Han, Young-song Son, Kyongsok Kim · 2007
P2P systems are distributed data sharing systems, and each node in them plays the role of client as well as server. There are several studies using Distributed Hash Table, such as Chord, CAN, Tapestry, Pastry, but these systems don't consider the physical latency, therefore they have a weakness of difficulty to guarantee stable performance. To improve this problem, we present the TP2P system. This system is a self-organizing hierarchical overlay system and it uses Chord routing mechanism for lookup data. This system is organized by several subnets, each subnet is organized by physically close nodes, and global network organized by all nodes. In each subnet, one node finds a data, it saves in a node in the subnet, therefore it has higher probability to reduce physical lookup latency than Chord system. And each node has global information of some nodes in its subnet, and it is used to lookup data, therefore the number of hops decrease about 25% as well as the physical lookup latecy are reduced.
