[p2p-hackers] p2p framework

[Hailong Cai]

There are a bunch of works that are built upon Gnutella-like topology while
using other techniques to attack the scalability problem.  You may have a
look at these related works, although some of them are still a design rather
than implementation.

Subject: [p2p-hackers] p2p framework

Hello All,

I have been looking for a suitable P2P framework to build my application 
upon. I came across Gnutella, which in its pure architecture suffers from 
scalability problems due to flooding. I also came ascross JXTA. However, I 
found it to be complex and huge. DHT approaches such as FreePastry and Chord

cannot support multi-criteria search and as far as I understood they can be 
used to answer exact-match queries only.

I was just wondering if there are any P2P frameworks/APIs that I am missing.

I am basically trying to extend the service discovery protocol within 
Jabber/XMPP, such that distributed jabber servers operate like registries 
and collaborate together in order to answer/process service-request queries.

In order to do so, I believe I need a proper underlying network topology, 
that is scalable and robust. I though of using Gnutella and implement one of

the "scalability-enhancing" techniques, such as random walks, iterative 
deepening, or routing indices.

Any p2p frameworks I am missing? any suggestions or comments would be 
appreciated.

Thanks.

Regards,
Salem
