Abstract

Peer-to-peer networks allow users to globally share resources directly with each other. As these users are from all over the world, they will utilize the network differently. For example, they might use their native tongue to describe resources. These differences make it a difficult task to provide efficient and robust search capabilities within fully distributed P2P networks. In this paper, we show how our P2P search infrastructure The Socialized.Net give nodes a rudimentary social network. This allows a close grouping of nodes based on interest, backgrounds and agendas. We discuss how the social network improves network performance, network integrity and search relevance.
