Abstract

Unstructured Peer-to-Peer applications are very popular on the Internet. An efficient technique for improving performance of search method of these systems is to replicate file location information in P2P. In this paper we present random walk spread mechanism, and random walk spread and search method. Simulation results show that it achieves high success rates at low cost.
