ABSTRACT:
Embodiments of a shared resource distributed index mechanism that peers in a peer-to-peer network may utilize to distribute index entries corresponding to resources to indexes of shared resources among one or more other peers. These indexes may be used to direct queries to peers where the queries are most likely to be answered. When a query is received by a rendezvous peer including one or more indexes, contents of the query may be “looked up” in the index to find matches. The results of the lookup may include information on one or peer(s) that may hold advertisement(s) to the resource requested by the query. The query may then be forwarded to one or more peers that may hold the advertisement for the resource. Embodiments may provide “loosely-coupled” distribution of index entries for use in querying for resources in the peer-to-peer network.
