Abstract

Peer-to-peer networking is a disseminated architecture application which partition the workload among peers. The peers are distributed with equal privileges pertaining the equipotent application. The peers are making portion of their resources including disk storage, processing power, bandwidth, which is in a straight line available to the participants of the network deprived of central management by host. The decision support system in the design of peer-to-peer computing based on lightweight blockchain plays an important role for the smooth activities of the peer-to-peer computing. Early decision making in peer-to-peer computing for the lightweight blockchain can save time, cost, bandwidth, effort, and other resources. A flawless system is the dire need for enhancing the computation efficiency of the peer-to-peer computing. The aim of the proposed research is to offer a decision support system for the uses of lightweight blockchain design for peer-to-peer computing. The SuperDecisions tool was used to plot the hierarchy of situations of the uses of blockchain for the design of peer-to-peer computing. The system enhance the early decision making for the uses of lightweight blockchiarn for effective peer-to-peer computing. The results of the proposed study elaborates the significant use of lightweight blockchain against peer-to-peer computing.
