CS 495/595 - P2P Information Systems |
| description: |
Peer-to-Peer (P2P) systems are an exciting, recent development
in Internet information systems. In addition to the most common examples
of file sharing, P2P systems are also deployed for distributed computation,
long-term file storage, chatting and anonymity purposes. This class
will review some of the history, social context, demonstrative systems
and some of the open issues in P2P. The class will focus heavily on
cooperative class programming assignments as well as case studies.
At the end of this course, the student will have a broad understanding
of the design, deployment and impact of P2P information systems.
