What is P2P network Applications?
1) File sharing: File sharing is the process of providing the files and giving access for the users to download over the internet. File sharing makes use of the Peer-to-peer network model, where the personal computers of the users are regarded as the peers in the network. Peer-to-peer file sharing differs from file trading in that downloading files from a peer-to-peer network does not require uploading.
2) Bioinformatics: Peer-to-peer networks have also started to grab attention from various scientists, especially those working with large datasets such as bioinformatics. Peer-to-peer networks can be used to run large programs that handle large amounts of data. For example, tests to identify drug candidates. This is possible since peer-to-peer networks scale well.
3) Artificial intelligence: Swarm intelligence (SI) is an artificial intelligence technique based around the study of collective behavior in decentralized, self-organized systems. A peer-to-peer network can be used to build the swarm intelligence where each peer in the network refers to a single agent.
4) Grid computing: Grid computing is a rising computer model that gives the ability to perform high throughput computing. Usually through the Internet to solve large-scale computation problems, Grids use the resources of many separate computers (peers) connected by a network. Grids provide the ability to perform computations on large data sets, by breaking them down into many smaller ones.
