This system develops an intelligent search
mechanism among large amount of distributed data on a Peerto-
Peer network. To illustrate the intelligent search mechanism,
the system builds a decentralized newspaper application. The
newspaper is organized as a network of peers; each peer
maintains a set of articles. By using the proposed mechanism, a
peer can efficiently search for articles in the newspaper. The
system is implemented on top of the P2P network by using Java
programming language. The Intelligent Search mechanism
improves on the first by having each peer in the network build a
profile of its peers, and use the profile to find, for each query,
which peers are likely to answer. It then forwards the query to
those peers only. |
