Ferreira and J.J.P. Ferreira
The paper
discusses the advantages of Peer to Peer (P2P) architectures over
client-server
architectures. P2P architectures provide more decentralised
infrastructures,
accommodating a much wider range of business patterns. Based on the Sun
Microsystem project JXTA the implementation of essential business
services is
presented and the benefits of P2P are illustrates by applying it in an
industrial equipment manufacturer.
