A review of recent advancement in Kademlia and Chord algorithm

Abstract

Peer to Peer (P2P) are distributed networks that distribute task and workloads between peers. Kademlia and Chord is two of the most popular Distributed Hash Table (DHT) algorithm in P2P network. In this paper we discussed how does Kademlia and Chord functions and what improvement on the two DHT have been done and how it is done. We then further discussed on which DHT outperformed the other and in which area that the two DHT differs in.
