Semantic P2P networks

Semantic P2P networks is a new type of P2P networks. It combines the advantages of unstructured P2P networks and structural P2P networks, and avoids the disadvantages of theirs.

In Semantic P2P networks, nodes are classified as DNS-like domain names with semantic meanings such as Alice @Brittney.popular.music. Semantic P2P networks contains prerequisite virtual tree topology and net-like topology formed by cached nodes. Semantic P2P networks keep the semantic meanings of nodes and their contents. The nodes within semantic P2P networks can communicate each other by various languages. Semantic P2P network can execute complicated queries by SQL-like language.
