“…In proximity applications [9] two or more handheld devices, physically close to each other, can communicate and exchange data in a secure way based on a hybrid P2P architecture model to guarantee application adaptability in changing environment. ProMoCoTo [12] promotes spontaneous P2P collaboration that can occur when co-workers meet by chance and engage in spontaneous, informal interaction and information exchange.…”

“…Some functions are centralized while other functions are distributed in a P2P manner. The hybrid P2P architecture has been utilized in proximity applications [9] to enhance the extensibility, the fault-tolerance management and the scalability. It is also used for network monitoring of field devices that provide services via the Internet [5].…”

A method and application architecture are proposed for improving the sharing of presence and other information between mobile clients and enterprise servers by determining, in a hybrid peer-topeer (P2P) network based on logical proximity, when a mobile client should share data with other peers in a group, instead of transmitting data to the servers. A "gateway-peer" is responsible for determining when to share data with peers within the group and when to transmit data to the servers. The mobile client shares data with other peers when a particular peer's presence status has changed and transmits data, via a gateway-peer, to the enterprise servers when the overall group's presence has changed. Our method aggregates presence and routes communications via hybrid P2P networking, thus reducing the load on enterprise servers, lessening the occurrences of single points-of-failure and improving the system scalability. A prototype system and a usecase scenario are described to illustrate our design concepts.
