Distributed Computing Industry Association (DCIA) is developing the new P4P standard that is a relatively little popular, but an interesting alternative to often criticized peer-to-peer (P2P) networks. Compared with them, the main feature of P4P is so-called transfers localization. This method uses iTrackers that download data only from people connected to the same Internet service provider. This may result in a significant download speed increase and reduce the peering points load.
