Abstract

Dowser is an application-level, peer-to-peer protocol for creating a searchable index and cache of documents. It is intended for both small-scale intranets and Worldwide Web-scale indexes. This document describes the messages that members, or "nodes", of the network pass to each other to distribute workload, request & respond to queries, and maintain the index.
