Peer to Peer
Peer to Peer: Harnessing the Power of
Disruptive Technologies
Andy Oram (editor)
First Edition March 2001
ISBN: 0-596-00110-X, 448 pages
This book presents the goals that drive the developers of the best-known
peer-to-peer systems, the problems they've faced, and the technical
solutions they've found.
The contributors are leading developers of well-known peer-to-peer
systems, such as Gnutella, Freenet, Jabber, Popular Power,
SETI@Home, Red Rover, Publius, Free Haven, Groove Networks, and
Reputation Technologies.
Topics include metadata, performance, trust, resource allocation,
reputation, security, and gateways between systems.

Description
The term "peer-to-peer" has come to be applied to networks that expect end users to contribute their
own files, computing time, or other resources to some shared project. Even more interesting than the
systems' technical underpinnings are their socially disruptive potential: in various ways they return
content, choice, and control to ordinary users.
While this book is mostly about the technical promise of peer-to-peer, we also talk about its exciting
social promise. Communities have been forming on the Internet for a long time, but they have been
limited by the flat interactive qualities of email and Network newsgroups. People can exchange
recommendations and ideas over these media, but have great difficulty commenting on each other's
postings, structuring information, performing searches, or creating summaries. If tools provided ways
to organize information intelligently, and if each person could serve up his or her own data and
retrieve others' data, the possibilities for collaboration would take off. Peer-to-peer technologies along
with metadata could enhance almost any group of people who share an interest--technical, cultural,
political, medical, you name it.
This book presents the goals that drive the developers of the best-known peer-to-peer systems, the
problems they've faced, and the technical solutions they've found. Learn here the essentials of peer-to-
peer from leaders of the field:
•
Nelson Minar
and
Marc Hedlund
of
Popular Power
, on a history of peer-to-peer
•
Clay Shirky
of
acceleratorgroup
, on where peer-to-peer is likely to be headed
•
Tim O'Reilly
of
O'Reilly & Associates
, on redefining the public's perceptions
•
Dan Bricklin
, cocreator of
Visicalc
, on harvesting information from end-users
•
David Anderson
of
SETI@home
, on how SETI@Home created the world's largest
computer
•
Jeremie Miller
of
Jabber
, on the Internet as a collection of conversations
•
Gene Kan
of
Gnutella
and
GoneSilent.com
, on lessons from Gnutella for peer-to-peer
technologies
•
Adam Langley
of
Freenet
, on Freenet's present and upcoming architecture
•
Alan Brown
of Red Rover, on a deliberately low-tech content distribution system
•
Marc Waldman
,
Lorrie Cranor
, and
Avi Rubin
of
AT&T Labs
, on the
Publius
project
and trust in distributed systems
•
Roger Dingledine
,
Michael J. Freedman
, and
David Molnar
of
Free Haven
, on
resource allocation and accountability in distributed systems
•
Rael Dornfest
of
O'Reilly Network
and
Dan Brickley
of ILRT/RDF Web, on metadata
•
Theodore Hong
of
Freenet
, on performance
•
Richard Lethin
of
Reputation Technologies
, on how reputation can be built online
•
Jon Udell
of
BYTE
and
Nimisha Asthagiri
and
Walter Tuvell
of
Groove Networks
,
on security
•
