This project seems interesting since it deals with peer to peer protocols and hashing technologies. I would like to learn about technologies that manipulate large datasets. The distributed hash tables act a lot like the hash maps we learned in the Java courses at UW and I would like to expand my knowledge about them through this project. Besides this connection, I don't have much experience on this topics and would love to learn more by conducting research on it.
-Decentralized Web: My understanding of this term is that it is a concept of the web centered around peer to peer networking. Instead of getting web content from centralized servers, users can host/share their content directly via the browser to their peers. This new generation of the web seems to be gaining popularity. Some questions on this topic I have are, How would we scale this new form of content sharing? What are the optimizations that can be done for content lookup? What are the security vulnerabilities in these technologies? How would commercial streaming companies be impacted this concept?
-Peer to Peer Networks: Computer systems can share content to each other without the need of a central server. This concept is what the decentralized web is based off of, only scaled to a global level.
-DAT and IPFS Protocols: Both of these protocols are designed as file systems which provide storage for data in the decentralized web. DAT protocol was designed to share, and interact with large data sets mainly intended for researchers. IPFS protocols work better with smaller amounts of data compared to DAT protocols. This is because IPFS protocols create duplicates of data which can be a problem with large amounts of data. Some questions about this topic are, As content types on the internet evolve, how will DAT and IPFS develop to make sharing of content type easier? Which of these protocols would be ideal for 5G types of speeds? How would social media websites such as Facebook, Instagram, etc implement peer to peer protocols such as DAT and IPFS?(Research that talks about this topic—https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/4801862)
