Using Peer to Peer Approach of Distributed Systems to Design a Chat Room Application

A distributed system is an application that executes a collection of protocols to coordinate the actions of multiple processes on a network, such that all components cooperate together to perform a set of related tasks. A distributed system can be physically instructed by two ways: First, fully connected network peer- to ?peer approach in which each of the nodes is connected to each other. Second, partially connected network in which a direct links exist between some but not all pairs of computers. The purpose of this paper is to design a chat room application which is based on the architecture of distributed system. This paper used a peer-to-peer approach to design the chat room application.
