ABSTRACT
We implemented a distributed, peer-to-peer file system in Java using the Chord protocol for efficient location of files stored across a network. Chord is a distributed key lookup technique that scales logarithmically with an increase in the number of storage nodes. Initially, we discovered problems with the Chord algorithms, and prototyped corrections to verify the changes. To implement the file sharing system, a Sockets-based messaging framework was implemented in Java, using command line interfaces and an FTP-like file push/pull semantics. The file system enables distributed peers to present a virtual single directory to users while sharing file load across different platforms. Using the application, we verified the claimed messaging performance of the basic Chord algorithm to be close to Mlog(N) behavior in an average case. The algorithms were modified to do locally-optimal balanced node joins, and experiments showed a 20% improvement in load balancing fairness over the standard, unbalanced algorithms.
