ABSTRACT

Scalability and efficient global search in large-scale peer-to-peer overlays often come at the expense of small-scale, local interactions between peers. For many users, local operations such as browsing, messaging, and direct content exchange between nodes may be more useful than access to the network as a whole. In this note we sketch the design of a small-scale overlay for applications such as ticketing systems, editorial coordination, and ad hoc workflows that currently rely on more general and less efficient mediums such as e-mail. Peers in the overlay form local economies and attempt to maximize user-directed utility functions.
