Abstract
Disclosed are methods and systems for expanding the search space in a Peer-to-Peer ('P2P') network. In one embodiment, the search space is expanded by increasing the time-to-live value of the search request message. The P2P network may include a plurality of nodes, and the method for increasing the search space in the network includes the steps of receiving a search request message; changing a time-to-live value carried by the message; and forwarding the message to at least one peer node.
