Abstract

This thesis describes the Peer-to-Peer Application Gridella. The decentralized architecture of P2P systems enables each peer to fulfill search requests solely by local interactions. The system described in this thesis scales to high numbers of peers and data items and remains available in spite of failing peers. Further, probabilities for successful search requests can be given. Gridella is based on the P-Grid approach~\cite{infosysdb:Aberer01a, infosysdb:Aberer02c} and is designed to be compatible with Gnutella `` infiltrate'' the existing Gnutella infrastructure and enable an simple migration. P-Grid increases the efficiency of search requests, and reduces the required bandwidth for system maintenance. On the basis of an analysis of the existing Gnutella infrastructure and its problems I describe the foundations of P-Grid. The developed application supports the existing Gnutella and the new Gridella protocol. Then the architecture and the communication between the systems are described in detail.

Peer-to-peer

Peer-to-peer (P2P) computing or networking is a distributed application architecture that partitions tasks or workloads between peers. Peers are equally privileged, equipotent participants in the network. This forms a peer-to-peer network of nodes. Peers make a portion of their resources, such as processing power, disk storage or network bandwidth, directly available to other network participants, without the need for central coordination by servers or stable hosts.

Gnutella

Gnutella is a peer-to-peer network protocol. Founded in 2000, it was the first decentralized peer-to-peer network of its kind, leading to other, later networks adopting the model. In June 2005, Gnutella's population was 1.81 million computers increasing to over three million nodes by January 2006. In late 2007, it was the most popular file-sharing network on the Internet with an estimated market share of more than 40%.

Smart grid

A smart grid is an electrical grid which includes a variety of operation and energy measures including: Advanced metering infrastructure (of which smart meters are a generic name for any utility side device even if it is more capable e.g. a fiber optic router) Smart distribution boards and circuit breakers integrated with home control and demand response (behind the meter from a utility perspective) Load control switches and smart appliances, often financed by efficiency gains on municipal programs (e.g.
