A Simulation Framework for Schema-Based Query Routing in P2P-Networks

Current simulations of P2P-networks don’t take any kind of schemas into account. We present a simulation-framework and first results for query routing based on extensible schema information to describe peer content, providing ue than simple categorizations like the filename as abstraction for an MP3-song. Using different parameterization, we compare the impact of introducing the HyperCuP-topology in a P2P-network for routing and possible clustering in super-peers and discuss first simulation results. We take into account the importance of the Zipf-distribution which is known for being the typical content distribution in internet networks.
