> Abstract: P2P computing is being recognised as a very important trend in
> the networking world. Defined as the sharing of computer resources and
> services by direct exchange, P2P computing is enabling a new wave of
> applications with the potential to revolutionise the way computers are
> used. Napster, Scour, Gnutella, SETI@home are examples of successful P2P
> applications. In this seminar, we try to answer the following questions
> with respect to P2P computing: What is P2P? Why P2P? What is it good for?
> What are the various issues in developing a P2P application?
>
> About the Speaker: Vivek Mehta is currently working as a Staff Scientist

> on projects in Natural Language Processing like Machine Translation and
> Natural Language Interfaces. Apart from NLP Vivek is also interested in
> Parallel Processing and Data Structures & Algorithms. Vivek is also a
