>    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
>    in the Knowledge Based Computer Systems (KBCS) division at NCST. He works
>    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
