Transforming research ideas into meaningful impact is no small feat. It often requires the knowledge and experience of individuals from across disciplines and institutions. Collaborators, a new Microsoft Research podcast series, explores the relationships—both expected and unexpected—behind the projects, products, and services being pursued and delivered by researchers at Microsoft and the diverse range of people they're teaming up with. In this inaugural episode, host Dr. Gretchen Huizinga talks with GitHub Staff Product Manager Kasia Sitkiewicz and Protocol Labs Research Scientist Petar Maymounkov about how their collaboration on Gov4git, a governance tool for decentralized, open-source cooperation, is helping to lay the foundation for a future in which everyone can collaborate more efficiently, transparently, and easily and in the ways that meet the unique desires and needs of their respective communities. They discuss the governance features that make Gov4git more suitable for serving a broader range of communities than today’s public blockchains and the open-source book project allowing them to test the potential and limitations of the work.https://www.microsoft.com/research

139 - Collaborators: Gov4git with Petar Maymounkov and Kasia Sitkiewicz

Napster, Kazaa, and Bittorrent are peer-to-peer file sharing systems. In these P2P systems, nodes need to find each other. Users need to be able to search for files that exist across the system. P2P systems are decentralized, so these routing problems must be solved without a centralized service in the middle. Without a centralized service that has all the information in one place, how can you solve these problems of node discovery and file lookup? This is the central question that Petar Maymounkov sought to answer with Kademlia. Kademlia is a peer-to-peer distributed hash table. Kademlia implements the “put” and “get” operations of an efficiently scalable hash table without using any centralized service. Each node in the system maintains its own routing table. When a user queries the system (a “get” operation), that query is serviced by the nodes coordinating with each other to intelligently route the user to their target location. When a file is stored (a “put” operation), that update to the file system can propagate through the network in a decentralized, uncoordinated way. Petar joins the show to give a brief history of P2P networks, why he created Kademlia, and what he is working on today. The post Kademlia: P2P Distributed Hash Table with Petar Maymounkov appeared first on Software Engineering Daily.
