Anonymous Routing Protocol in decentralized networks

Abstract

Peer-reviewed

We propose an algorithm for performing routing anonymous within the networks peer-to-peer, decentralized networks. We have created a small application for sending a file from a user who connects to the application to a server that is assigned to it, which is given to a Directory, which contains all the addresses of these Entities. We have also done a few tests to check the behavior of the algorithm within an application, such as the degree of anonymity provides, or latency of this depending on the size of the file or the performance of each Entity by package. And finally we extract conclusions and propose improvements to the algorithm for future works.

Proposem un protocol per realitzar l'encaminament anònim dins de les xarxes peer-to-peer, les xarxes descentralitzades. Hem creat una petita aplicació per l'enviament d'un arxiu des d'un usuari que es connecta a l'aplicació fins un servidor que s'hi assignarà a aquest, el qual és donat per un Directory, que conté totes les direccions d'aquestes Entities. També hem fet unes proves per comprovar el comportament de l'algorisme dins d'una aplicació, tal com el grau d'anonimat que aporta, o la latència d'aquest segons la mida de l'arxiu o el rendiment de cada Entity per paquet. I finalment extraiem conclusions i proposem millores per l'algorisme per treballs futurs.
