Abstract

Semantic overlay networks are an instance of unstructured overlays, where peers that are semantically, thematically, or socially close are organized into groups to exploit similarities at query time. In this work we present Clouds, a novel P2P search infrastructure for providing anonymous and censorship resistant search functionality in such networks. Although we utilize semantic overlays to exploit their retrieval capabilities, our framework is general and can be applied to any unstructured overlay.
