Package eu.reservoir.monitoring.im.dht Description

This package provides classes that are the implementation of the Info Plane that utilizes a Distributed Hash Table (DHT) for storing the Info on the Probes and the Data Sources.

For a DHT, there needs to be a root node, which the other DHT nodes connect to. This is defined in DHTInfoPlaneRoot.

Any other nodes which add data to the DHT are defined using a DHTInfoPlane object, which points to the root node.

For a node which only wishes to read data from the DHT, but not add new data, the DHTInfoPlaneConsumer class is used.
