A P2P E-Commerce Model Based on Interest Community

Abstract

The challenging problem is how to store and search data efficiently when applying P2P technology in e-commerce. In order to solve this problem, we propose a P2P e-commerce model based on interest community, which manages each user’s data by use of interest community. Users with similar interests form an interest community. Interest communities will reorganize as any user’s interest has changed. Simulation results show this model has higher search efficiency and lower search cost compared with traditional keyword search algorithm.
