Peer-to-peer (P2P) networks have emerged as a popular way to build large scale information systems by using the principle of resource sharing. The P2P paradigm holds many promises, e.g. scalability, failure resilience and increased autonomy of nodes. For these reasons P2P seems also to be an interesting architectural paradigm for realizing large scale information retrieval systems. However, search methods in P2P networks are still mostly limited to simple keyword queries and the use of advanced retrieval models is in its infancy.
