2. Introduction The original idea comes from research groups such as CML Laboratory of NTU. People want to share their document over Internet and need the functionality of keyword search. Thus we need a peer-to-peer mechanism for document exchange to achieve the goal of knowledge management. And we also need full text search to find/filter the sharing resources before downloading.

3. Features Peer-to-peer document sharing over Internet. Full text keyword searching / search result ranking within community. Direct document exchange by sending to and downloading from others. We developed our own URL format Ex: dsc://download/hostname/path/to/file

4. Market Requirement A simple application can be installed to connect to the community. Entering/leaving the community at any time. Sharing documents with each other. The sharing resources must keep up to date. Easy to see what's on the community. User can enter keywords to search the community for documents. User can direct send files with each other.

5. Project Roadmap Version 1.0 Basic functionality: Version 2.0 Duplication multi-copies in community Provide central backup mechanism Version 3.0 User management/authentication User acknowledge of document exchange More document formats will be supported in the future

6. Stage Goals Stage 1: Community browsing Stage 2: Search functionality Stage 3: Download/send file functionality

7. Schedule Notes 5/3: 黃振修 should finish the document digest module 5/10: 葉家齊 should finish the architecture prototype and server side protocol communication 5/12: 羅婉琪 should finish the client browsing functionality 5/10: QA finishes doc conversion testing (binary/code) 5/10: 李宜儒 should finish Win32 file hook mechanism 5/13: Download/send file should be OK 5/24: Document search QA finishes testing 5/24: The search result should be OK 5/28 ~ 6/4: Code freeze and final testing

8. Project Meetings Two types of meetings are defined: [PRJ]: Project meeting [DEV]: Developing meeting Meeting dates: [PRJ] 4/15, Tue. R319 of CSIE building [DEV] 4/23, Wed. R505 of CSIE building [DEV] 4/28, Mon, R505 of CSIE building [DEV] 4/29, Tue. R107 of CSIE building [DEV] 4/29, Tue. R105 of CSIE building [DEV] 5/6, Tue. R519 of CSIE building [PRJ] 6/9, Mon. R503 of CSIE building After 5/6, no formal meeting is held until the final. Instead, several small meetings are held in QAs and RDs; sometimes PM also calls RDs and QAs to cooperate.

10. Development Tools Microsoft VC++ 6.0 Borland C++ Builder CVS for source control Central FTP server for file exchange Install Shield for SETUP program

11. Architecture Graphics User Interface KernelProtocol API for GUI Host Lookup Thread Server Thread Client Server Document Keyword Processor Database Local Shared File Database Host Database Task Database

12. Technical Notes (1/2) Pure peer-to-peer mechanism is implemented. Each application embeds both the client and server. (for the efficiency reason) When search request issued, the application will search its own document collection and then forward the message to other computers Dynamically monitoring of the sharing folder. Once the documents in the sharing folder are modified, the digest module will re-digest it real- time; keeping the latest information toward the community. See PDD for more detail

13. Technical Notes (2/2) Support three main document formats: MS Word, MS PowerPoint, and PDF files. (No Chinese support) Digest is the technique used to extract document’s feature vector. Searching is based on those digest vectors. An algorithm is developed to rate the searching and the result is ranked according to the points. Digest for the sharing documents are saved once exiting the program; only first time initialization is needed. See PDD for more detail

14. Demonstration

15. Testing Plans What is to be tested? Platform Network status Command File Conversion Download/Upload Where is going to be tested? Win32 environment, Windows 2000 OS PIII 500 CPU, 256 MB RAM, 100 Mbps ethernet See QAD for more detail

16. Testing Cases Document format conversion (binary tools testing) Document format conversion (integrated as program module, test for robustness and accuracy) P2P sharing community (test for the feature functionalities for UI program) The sharing module (test for the digest/searching and sharing folder monitoring) Setup program (test for the installer’s functionality) Performance report (memory usage, CPU utilization, memory leak) See QAD for more detail

17. Bug Tracking (1/2) Empty document files may cause fatal error Solved by check file completeness first. Some PDF file may cause the conversion module to get the wrong page number, causing fatal error. Check the validity of page number first. Duplication list when browsing Stupid bug Get file list waits too long Stupid bug See BTD for more detail

18. Bug Tracking (2/2) Download/sending file too slow Stupid bug (sleeping in the sending loop) Can not get file list/browsing when clients using DHCP Not solved because of the time limit. Keyword search in sharing folder do not recursively applied Solved by writing the recursive code Keyword search is too slow Improve the algorithm See BTD for more detail

19. Bug Statistics 5/35/105/246/86/95/7

20. Change Control History Change from client-server architecture to peer-to-peer architecture [4/23] Change the document digest from full-text to digest vector based. [5/6] Decide to allow recursively sharing in sharing folder [6/1]

21. Future Plan Version 2.0 Duplication multi-copies in community Provide central backup mechanism Version 3.0 User management/authentication User acknowledge of document exchange Bug fix and support for more document formats
