Abstract
One of the obligations in any modern administration is to provide complete and on-time information about its own services to the citizens. This task is sometimes overlooked and may suffer from many barriers such as not-so-simple mechanisms to locate the desired piece of information or problems on the access related to insufficient bandwidth or others. This papers present an original mechanism to locate and download this information taking advantage of semantics (for the discovery) and P2P networks (for the actual downloading of information). The combination of both technologies turn out to offer a number of advantages and a scalable manner to deploy the proposal, as shown on the paper. Authors also present some conclusions for future attempts on the domain.
