Introduction

From the very begining of the appearance of p2p networks, nodes participating in p2p networks are interconneted in a certain way. Basicaly, we can differ from p2p non structured and structured networks regarding to their topology.

Non Structured Network Topologies

Main examples:

• Gnutella
  

Structured Network Topologies

Main examples:

• CAN
  
• Tapestry
  
• Pastry
  
• Chord
  
• Symphony
  
• Koorde
  
• BAKE INFOCOM'08 Extended
