摘要:"Peer-to-Peer Computing: The Evolution of a Disruptive Technology takes a holistic approach to the effects P2P computing has on a number of disciplines. Some of those areas covered within this book include grid computing, Web services, bio-informatics, security, finance and economics, collaboration, and legal issues." "Unique in its approach, Peer-to-Peer Computing: The Evolution of a Disruptive Technology includes current articles from academics as well as IT practitioners and consultants from around the world. As a result, the book strikes a balance for many readers. Neither too technical nor too managerial, this book appeals to the needs of both researchers and practitioners who are trying to gain a more thorough understanding of current P2P technologies and their emerging ramifications."--Jacket.
