With a number of emerging applications, peer-to-peer (P2P) computing is a form of distributed processing that continues to increase in use. This book provides a detailed technical survey of existing P2P applications, various enabling technologies and protocols, and evolving research issues, such as network topology control and incentive providing mechanisms. Suitable for both senior-level undergraduate and graduate students as well as industry professionals, the text examines existing P2P applications, including file sharing, file transfer through BlackBerry email service, and wireless gaming capabilities. It also explores "what if" scenarios of future P2P systems.
