Leveraging P2P Architecture and Semantic Web for Enhanced Resource Discovery

Abstract

Web 4.0, also known as the next generation, intelligent internet, possesses the potential to become a widely and universally used communication medium for various types of information. However, its decentralized architecture lacks strong semantic support, resulting in an internet that is disorganized. The current system lacks the capacity to facilitate users' effective information discovery, extraction, and integration from multiple sources. Additionally, it fails to give consumers efficient tools for manipulating and turning acquired data into knowledge that is useful. Peer-to-peer (P2P) overlay technologies have recently come to light as a way to improve resource discovery on the internet. In dynamic and large- scale situations, these technologies provide a scalable framework for allocating, sharing, and gaining access to resources. The purpose of this research is to discuss on semantically enabled web architecture that makes use of P2P overlay technology. This architecture aims to facilitate structured and precise access to internet resources and promote knowledge sharing among community members who share similar interests. The paper examines the core elements of the semantic web architecture, which encompass the services and protocols responsible for resource advertising, discovery, and management, methods and material. It then delve into the hybrid peer-to-peer (P2P) overlay structure, specifically focusing on indexing and resource location, and explores the mechanisms necessary to facilitate scalable routing within a distributed environment.
