International Journal of Peer to Peer Networks (IJP2P) (ISSN: 2229-5240)

Description

Scope & Topics

The International Journal of peer-to-peer networking is a quarterly open access journal that publishes articles that contribute new results in all areas of P2P Networks. The journal provides a platform to disseminate new ideas and new research, advance theories, and propagate best practices in the area of P2P networking. This will include works that relate to peer-to-peer systems, peer-to-peer applications, grid systems, large-scale distributed systems, and overlay networks. The journal offers a forum in which academics, consultants, and practitioners in a variety of fields can exchange ideas to further research and improve practices in all areas of P2P.

Authors are solicited to contribute to the journal by submitting articles that illustrate research results, projects, surveying works and industrial experiences that describe significant advances in the areas of P2P networks. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:

Advances in theoretical foundations of P2P
Commercial applications
