peer (foldoc) | peer
A unit of communications hardware or software
that is on the same protocol layer of a network as another.
A common way of viewing a communications link is as two
protocol stacks, which are actually connected only at the
very lowest (physical) layer, but can be regarded as being
connected at each higher layer by virtue of the services
provided by the lower layers. Peer-to-peer communication
refers to these real or virtual connections between
corresponding systems in each layer.
To give a simple example, when two people talk to each other,
the lowest layer is the physical layer which concerns the
sound pressure waves travelling from mouth to ear (so mouths
and ears are peers) the next layer might be the speech and
hearing centres in the people's brains and the top layer their
cerebellums or minds. Although, barring telepathy, nothing
passes directly between the two minds, there is a peer-to-peer
communication between them.

peers.

by citizens.

P2P
peer-to-peer network
1. The kind of communication found in a system
using layered protocols. Each software or hardware
component can be considered to communicate only with its
peer in the same layer via the connection provided by the
lower layers.
(1994-12-14)
2. A decentralised file sharing system like BitTorrent,
Gnutella or Kazaa where computers that download data also
store that data and serve it to other downloaders. This
increases the total bandwidth available in proportion to the
number of users and so reduces download time. It also
improves resilience by providing multiple redundant sources
for the same data. This contrasts with client-server where
all clients download the data from a single server (or
mirror), sharing its fixed bandwidth.
Peer-to-peer networks are typically ad-hoc and rely on users
sharing the content they have downloaded for the benefit of
other users. Users who fail to do this are called "leaches".
A "seed" is a node on a peer-to-peer network that is
sharing a complete copy of a file, as opposed to other nodes
that may only have some of the parts into which the file has
been split.
