Actually, while the frequency of Chord links falls exponentially with the "level" (not sure what the Chord term is) the length of such links increases exponentially as well, so in fact the frequency of links with certain lengths do fall harmonically. One could see Chord as some sort of "mean field" version of the same dynamics as Kleinberg's model. > Most DHTs aren't small worlds in the sense used in the Freenet work; > Symphony[4] is an exception. All sensible DHTs are small-world networks. If our definition of the term doesn't imply this, we are getting lost in semantics. // oskar _______________________________________________ p2p-hackers mailing list p2p-hackers@zgp.org http://zgp.org/mailman/listinfo/p2p-hackers _______________________________________________ Here is a web page listing P2P Conferences: http://www.neurogrid.net/twiki/bin/view/Main/PeerToPeerConferences
