Distributed Query Processing and Catalogs for Peer-to-Peer Systems

Summary: Introduces a scalable P2P framework using “mutant query plans” (XML-serialized algebraic plan graphs that can embed data, URLs, and URNs) to push and route query computation across peers. Proposes multi-hierarchic distributed catalogs for content indexing and routing and peer-advertised currency/coverage metadata to trade off answer completeness, timeliness, and latency.
