  • Currently deployed peer-to-peer systems and how they work
  • Distributed Hash Tables as a base for structured peer-to-peer systems
  • Peer-to-peer storage systems and their performance evaluation
  • Performance issues, legal aspects, and privacy issues
  • Peer-to-peer content distribution algorithms

Kurssin suorittaminen

Course grading will be based on the final exam and the assignments. The assignments are done working with a pair. The aim of the assignments are to introduce crucial development and evaluation techniques and illustrate the topics covered during the lectures.
