Peer to peer search engine and collaboration platform based on JXTA protocol

In this paper we are going to present the architecture of peer-to-peer collaborative framework. The peer-to-peer technologies used in this research are based on Java implementation of JXTA protocol. The communication services that are implemented on presented peer-to-peer network do not depend on centralized servers and are therefore immune to server infrastructure faults. Moreover an advantage of the presented approach is the ability to seamlessly establish communication through firewalls and proxy servers (e.g. NAT server).
