ABSTRACT
Peer-to-peer systems have the ability to connect network nodes in a convenient and simple manner. Thus, they are used in a broad range of applications to connect nodes with different capabilities in terms of computational power, memory and energy. For all these peer-to-peer systems there doesn't exist a coherent and dynamic security concept which allows application designers to simply specify their security requirements and are thereafter offered security features to protect applications against threats. In this paper we outline a general peer-to-peer model offering a dynamic security concept which allows for simple selection of an appropriate security level.

An Efficient Hybrid Peer-to-Peer System for Distributed Data Sharing
Peer-to-peer overlay networks are widely used in distributed systems. Based on whether a regular topology is maintained among peers, peer-to-peer networks can be divided into two categories: structured peer-to-peer networks in which peers are connected ...
Peer-to-peer multimedia applications
MM '06: Proceedings of the 14th ACM international conference on MultimediaIn both academia and industry, peer-to-peer (P2P) applications have attracted great attention. Peer-to-peer file sharing applications, such as Napster, Gnutella, Kazaa, BitTorrent, Skype and PPLive, have witnessed tremendous success among end users. And ...
On Optimizing Overlay Topologies for Search in Unstructured Peer-to-Peer Networks
Unstructured peer-to-peer (P2P) file-sharing networks are popular in the mass market. As the peers participating in unstructured networks interconnect randomly, they rely on flooding query messages to discover objects of interest and thus introduce ...
