Year: 2002
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: This paper offers a definition for peer-to-peer networking and makes the differences to common so called client server-architectures clear. With this definition we are able to classifiy currently existing networking concepts in the Internet either as "pure" peer-to-peer, or "hybrid" peer-to-peer or client server architecture.
