The significance of collaboration over the Internet has become a corner-stone of modern computing, as the essence of information processing and content management has shifted to networked and Webbased systems. As a result, the effective and reliable access to networked resources has become a critical commodity in any modern infrastructure.
In order to cope with the limitations introduced by the traditional client-server networking model, most of the popular Web-based services have employed separate Content Delivery Networks (CDN) to distribute the server-side resource consumption. Since the Web applications are often latency-critical, the CDNs are additionally being adopted for optimizing the content delivery latencies perceived by the Web clients. Because of the prevalent connection model, the Web content delivery has grown to a notable industry. The rapid growth in the amount of mobile devices further contributes to the amount of resources required from the originating server, as the content is also accessible on the go.
While the Web has become one of the most utilized sources of information and digital content, the openness of the Internet is simultaneously being reduced by organizations and governments preventing access to any undesired resources. The access to information may be regulated or altered to suit any political interests or organizational benefits, thus conflicting with the initial design principle of an unrestricted and independent information network.
This thesis contributes to the development of more efficient and open Internet by combining a feasibility study and a preliminary design of a peer-to-peer based Web content distribution and request routing mechanism. The suggested design addresses both the challenges related to effectiveness of current client-server networking model and the openness of information distributed over the Internet. Based on the properties of existing peer-to-peer implementations, the suggested overlay design is intended to provide low-latency access to any Web content without sacrificing the end-user privacy. The overlay is additionally designed to increase the cost of censorship by forcing a successful blockade to isolate the censored network from the rest of the Internet. |
