Gossip Communities: Collaborative Filtering Through Peer-to-Peer Overlays
Ranieri Baraglia, Patrizio Dazzi, Matteo Mordacchini, Raffaele Perego, Laura Ricci · 2010
Gossip-based Peer-to-Peer protocols proved to be very efficient for supporting dynamic and complex information exchange among distributed peers. They are useful for building and maintaining the network topology itself as well as to support a pervasive diffusion of the information injected into the network. In this paper, we propose the general architecture of a system that tries to exploit the collaborative exchange of information between peers in order to build a system able to gather similar users and spread useful suggestions among them.
